Fixed delay problems, if RTP stream jitters too much

The RTP stream is generated or forwarded by OpenBSC to nanoBTS. Due to
switching of streams (hold/retrieve call), packet loss or even stalling
of sender's process, the time stamp must be corrected. If outdated
packets are received, they get dropped.
