Some codecs editors had miss interpreted the H264 standart and
have coded a wrong size in the SEI data.
size = SEI size + 1.
The SEI data is detected as "truncated"
Ex: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1cNtLwnfPnyJnYqE7OYhU3SCoLRtuXIUM/view?usp=sharing
Command:
ffprobe -print_format xml -show_frames -read_intervals %+0.04 truncated.h264 
This (simple) patch add the possibility to read this false truncated SEI data with the default stric_std_compliance or less.
The error remain logged in both cases.

V2: Modifiy the patch for only the off by one values

Thanks in advance !
