Firefly crossdomain.xml plugin

Firefly is an open-source media player (iTunes for the poor). I've implemented a plugin that serves up a crossdomain.xml file: this allows Flash "applications" to use Firefly (for streaming music).

The source code is here. Place it in the src/plugins folder of the firefly sources and compile it like so:

  gcc -shared -o crossdomain_xml.so -I.. -I../.. crossdomain_xml.c

Then copy the library to /usr/lib/mt-daapd/plugins/ (or wherever the plugins directory for your installation may be) and add the crossdomain_xml.so plugin to the "plugins" configuration directive in /etc/mt-daapd.conf (don't forget to restart firefly).
