In push mode, we determine duration by doing a seek to the end of the
stream. However, a skeleton stream with an index will cause the duration
to be known already, and we end up never setting the push_time_duration
variable which we use to know duration has been determined.

The codec setup headers are a lot more likely to have correct information,
especially as it's easy to remux a skeleton in a file where streams don't
have the same parameters (I've even seen a file with two skeletons).
Still, this is useful in the case we have a codec we can't decode, so we
can at least (theoretically) convert granpos to time, so we discard this
information if the codec setup has already provided it.
This fixes playback on (at lesat) the original archive.org encoding of
"The Night of the Living Dead" (now replaced by another encoding).

This could happen when testing with navseek, and pressing
right and left at roughly the same time. The current chain
is temporarily moved away, and this caused the flush events
not to be sent to the source pads, which would cause the
data queues downstream to reject incoming data after the
seek, and shut down, wedging the pipeline.
Now, I can't really decide whether this is a nasty steaming
hack or a good fix, but it certainly does fix the issue, and
does not seem to break anything else so far.

This patch implements seeking in push mode (eg, over the net)
in Ogg, using the double bisection method.
As a side effect, it also fixes duration determination of network
streams, by seeking to the end to check the actual duration.
Known issues:
- Getting an EOS while seeking stops the streaming task, I can't
find a way to prevent this (eg, by issuing a seek in the event
handler).
- Seeking twice in a VERY short succession with playbin2 fails
for streams with subtitles, we end up pushing in a dataqueue
which is flushing. Rare in normal use AFAICT.
- Seeking is slow on slow links - byte ranges guesses could be
made better, decreasing the number of required requests
- If no granule position is found in the last 64 KB of a stream,
duration will be left unknown (should be pretty rare)
