Since get_cluster_duration() checks dts against INT_MAX, remove
the clamp at here can still trigger abort() after.

```
    av_assert0(next_dts <= INT_MAX);

```

The prototype of get_cluster_duration() which returns int needs
to be fixed, and a bunch of places.

And then we can get regression issues: movenc.c output files with
delta larger than INT32_MAX can be dangerous, which is not the
case of mov.c demuxer.

It’s a clever trick here, by using a large sample duration to
handle start time difference between multiple tracks. Since it’s
not a standard method like editlist, I think we can turn off the
strategy safely (FFmpeg abort before the patch, so it’s already
turned off in a hard way).

What do you think?
