This seems great if acceptable. I have tried that in
cygport file.

The new cygport file does:
- The header files are placed in libopenh264-headers.
  I think this makes the license of the header files
  clearer than fedora's approach.
- The libopenh264 package includes only /etc/postinstall
  and /etc/preremove, which downloads/removes Cisco's dll
  (binary) as well as license file.

Jon, could you please have a look?
