The av1C box is optional so dropping parsing does not break anything
fundamentally, and there seems to be no historical record how version 0
even looks like while the comments and the parsing disagreed with each
other.

When using qtdemux in a pipeline that should only work as a pure demuxer (not
for actual playback), qtdemux shouldn't emit new GstSegments to correct
the start time (jump to the future) to ensure that the user experiences no
playback delay. By doing so, it's generating the wrong segments when an append
of data from the past happens. When that happens, downstream elements such as
parsers (eg: aacparse) may clip those buffers laying before the GstSegment and
create problems on the GStreamer client app (eg: WebKit).
Getting buffers clipped out because of the wrong GstSegments started becoming
a problen when this commit was introduced:
ab6e49e9cc audioparsers: add back segment clipping to parsers that have lost it
This clipping makes test DASH shaka 35 from MVT tests[1] to fail in
WebKitGTK/WPE (at least) and can potentially cause a number of other problems
in the WebKit Media Source Extensions (MSE) code.
Note that this new behaviour of not emitting new GstSegments only makes sense
when qtdemux is being used as a pure demuxer and not as part of a regular
pipeline. This is why the variant field has been added. When equal to
VARIANT_MSE_BYTESTREAM, it will make qtdemux behave differently in push mode,
taking decisions that meet the expectations for an MSE-like processing mode.
This kind of tweaks have been done in the past for MSS streams, for instance.
That code has been refactored to use VARIANT_MSS_FRAGMENTED now, instead of
its own dedicated boolean flag.

The live playlists should be updated at a defined interval. The problem is that
this interval was used *after* the playlist was finally received and processed,
which resulted in a gradual shift happening in playlist updates.
Instead store and use the time at which playlists were requested to determine
when the next one should be downloaded.

The scanning is done in a reverse order, the proper full checks to do are
therefore:
* If the position is beyond half a "segment duration", it's in the following
segment
* If the position is within the first half of a segment, it's in that one
* If the segment is the first one and the position is within half a duration
backwards, we consider the position as being within that first segment
Also handle the case where a "partial only" segment doesn't have a reliable
duration, and therefore use the playlist target duration instead.

The implementation wouldn't work with regular HLS streams (i.e. the final
fallback).
Now that the implementation uses time to search for the starting
segment (instead of just the n-th from the end), we can specify the correct
hold_back fallback value from the RFC

Avoid a deadlock if a downstream seeking query happens while the scheduler
thread is holding the manifest lock (for example during a seek back to live).
Instead, do a more elaborate fix where the external calls that need access to a
'manifest' access a copy that's updated during a manually triggered manifest
update callback.

Rename track_dequeue_data_locked() to
gst_adaptive_demux_track_dequeue_data_locked(), since it's non-static.
Make find_stream_for_track_locked() static since it's only used in the main
gstadaptivedemux.c file.

gst_adaptive_demux2_stream_finish_download() will already schedule another
fragment download if it can so don't fall through to the retry code that will
also try and schedule a download (triggering an assert).
Fix the logic in general to retry advancing into the live seek range once.

When calculating the seek range for a live stream, use the same hold-back logic
as when choosing a starting segment, including low-latency segments if
enabled. Permits seeking closer to the live edge when re-synching or catching
up.

When playing at the live edge of a live playlist, and a download fails, we don't
expect there to be a next fragment. That case is handled lower down anyway, so
don't retry infinitely on spurious http errors at the live edge.

gst_hls_demux_stream_has_next_fragment() can be called with a NULL
current_segment if we're past the end of the current playlist. In that case,
just return FALSE instead of hitting a critical in the playlist code.

When playing LL-HLS playlists in LL-HLS mode, update the playlist more often (on
the partial segment interval) or else we end up downloading them in bursts and
playing further from the live edge than intended.
