[icecast] Adding more to stats.xml WAS:Source XML for status.xsl

[Daniel Seebald]

Currently the sources send information like genre, artist, title, num. 
of listeners and some more metadata.
Maybe a good implementation would be, that someone can freely define 
additional metadata which
then would be displayed via the stats.xml or some other XSL-Page.
