totem-gstreamer: doesn't display what codec it needs

[Alex Mauer]

Binary package hint: totem

when totem-gstreamer encounters a video codec which it doesn't understand, it offers to use gstreamer-codec-installer to install a codec. Unfortunately, it never displays what codec is to be searched for, in order to facilitate the situation where gstreamer-codec-installer might fail. Totem should display this information, either when it prompts the user to search for a codec, or once gstreamer-codec-installer has failed to find/install the relevant codec.
