Revert "avformat/file: seek back to initial position for fd protocol"

The generally expected behaviour is for software to append from the
current position, not to keep resetting. See also how shell works:
 # (foo && bar) > file
...would normally concatenate the output of both commands to file.

If foo seeks like lavf, bar would instead overwrite the output of
foo (possibly not completely).

This reverts commit 5c3d2177e7be7dde69a83b1b394f57976c164c84.
