Using this in a demuxer will cause deadlocks if there's
a pad with a pending pad-block downstream, no matter if
there is a queue between the pad or not. Queues pass
bufferalloc downstream from the same thread and only
act as a thread boundary for events and buffers.
Extra info can't hurt. Field names aren't necessarily consistent with
what's used elsewhere though (e.g. avidemux), but then neither are the
caps.

Only send newsegment events with new positions downstream when actually
needed, instead of sending multiple newsegment events with new seek
positions in a row. Also set the discont flag on buffers after a
discontinuity.
Re-use the existing 'pos' field maintained by ebml writer to set
buffer offsets. This also makes sure that we set the right offsets
on buffers after a seek (e.g. when writing an index at the end).
That is, if parse error occurs in state requiring to move to next cluster,
and doing so to the expected next position of cluster fails, then scan for a
next cluster from present position and resume from there.
Fixes#620790.
If some bits out of place in block(group) parsing, forego and move to next.
Also skip large blocks in pull mode, but need to give up in push mode.
Fixes#626463.
Improves #620790.
That is, in files that have no index (Cue), perform seek by scanning for
nearest cluster with timecode before requested position. Scanning is done
as a combination of interpolation and sequential scan.
Fixes#617368.
So matroska's Block structure has no keyframe flag, only the SimpleBlock has it.
To detect keyframes in Blocks, it is just the BlockGroup container that needs
to have a ReferenceBlock attached if it is a delta frame in video.
Start cluster at every keyframe or when we would overflow the previous
cluster's relative timestamp field. This would avoid as much as possible
starting clusters at non-keyframes.
This allows us to skip delta units earlier and is a bit clearer in my
opinion. It also makes only video buffers ever be delta units, not
just for SimpleBlock as before.
When the keyframe bit of SimpleBlock Flags wasn't set, the buffer was being
marked with GST_BUFFER_FLAG_DELTA_UNIT, causing all buffers to be skipped
after a seek. This may be a problem with the Sorenson Squish encoder, but
arguably the keyframe bit should only be applied to video.
Fixes bug #620358.
