[MPlayer-dev-eng] [PATCH] Ogg seeking fixed

I've thought about it, but have not come up with a clean solution
(perhaps it was just too late yesterday). I could make some 'sanity'
checks like packet size (unreliable), packet's packet number
(unreliable) or even analyze its contents (even more unreliable). So
far I don't see that the Ogg libraries are acutally able to tell that a
packet is missing its head at all.

On the other hand the chances that by skipping this first packet I also
skip a valid _key_frame are very, very small (first the seeking must
have ended directly in front of a Ogg page belonging to the video
stream, then this page must be the first for the key frame, and the
frame must be a key frame which don't occur that often ;)).

My (temporarily inserted) debug messages also showed that the code
usually has to read a lot of pages/packets before finding a key frame,
even without skipping the first one.

Done.
