NEW: multimedia/gerbera [WIP]

Here's a working port for gerbera, but I never really used it since my
use case for it disappeared soon after getting the port done.

The server starts, full offline documentation is available, one (small?)
nit with inotify support remains unsolved, otherwise the port is in good
shape.

You'll find comments in the Makefile, active upstream work towards C++17
and an almost ready rc.d script where proper daemon user integration
shouuld be worked out.

So in case anyone is interested in this, feel free to pick it up,
improve things and perhaps import it. I'll gladly review things and
would be even happier so see someone maintain it, but I personally put
any more effort into it for above mentioned reasons.
