use even-numbered ports for RTP #93

RFC 3550:
RTP relies on the underlying protocol(s) to provide demultiplexing of
RTP data and RTCP control streams. For UDP and similar protocols,
RTP SHOULD use an even destination port number and the corresponding
RTCP stream SHOULD use the next higher (odd) destination port number.

@janstary is this comment for adding description to the man page and usage in the future? I just wanted to know your intention of logging this comment, since historically rtptools did not allow odd numbers for RTP ports to comply with RFC 3550.
