recorder: Port to new gstreamer vp8enc api

The speed and quality properties have been removed in favor of properties
closer to the upstream library.

Removing the properies from the pipeline would result into a huge
slowdown so we have to map the old values to the new ones.

According to the source code of the old vp8enc element quality maps to
(int)(63 - quality * 6.2) for min_quantizer and max_quantizer, while
speed maps to cpu-used = speed == 0 ? 0 : (speed - 1).

So set min_quantizer and min_quantizer to 13, and cpu-used to 5 based on
the above formulas.
