gst/: Change the meaning of the magnitude values given in the

Original commit message from CVS:
* gst/equalizer/demo.c: (draw_spectrum):
* gst/spectrum/demo-audiotest.c: (draw_spectrum):
* gst/spectrum/demo-osssrc.c: (draw_spectrum):
* gst/spectrum/gstspectrum.c: (gst_spectrum_class_init):
Change the meaning of the magnitude values given in the
GstMessages by spectrum to decibel instead of
decibel+threshold.
