avconv: make input -ss accurate when transcoding
Insert (a)trim filters on the corresponding inputs, so the extra frames
are decoded and discarded.

- WavPack encoding through libwavpack
- Added the -n parameter to avconv
- RTMP seek support
+- when transcoding with avconv (i.e. not streamcopying), -ss is now accurate
+ even when used as an input option. Previous behavior can be restored with
+ the -noaccurate_seek option.
