rtspconnection: protect cancellable by a mutex

It is entirely possible for the cancellable to be cancelled (and freed)
in gst_rtsp_connection_flush() while there may be an ongoing read/write
operation.

Nothing prevents gst_rtsp_connection_flush() from waiting for the
outstanding read/writes.

This could lead to a crash like (where cancellable has been freed
within gst_rtsp_connection_flush()):

Fix by adding a cancellable lock and returning an extra reference used
across all read/write operations.  gst_rtsp_connection_flush() can free
the in-use cancellable and it will no longer affect any in progress
read/write.
