RFC 8216 6.3.3 "Playing the Media Playlist File" : states that for live media
playlists "the client SHOULD NOT choose a segment that starts less than three
target durations from the end of the Playlist file"
This is an off-by-one error. Since we are looking for the "index" of the
segment, we need to subtract 1 from the searched position.
Ex: For a playlist with 12 entries, we want to start playback on the 9th segment
... which is at index 8.

This provides new HLS, DASH and MSS adaptive demuxer elements as a single plugin.
These elements offer many improvements over the legacy elements. They will only
work within a streams-aware context (`urisourcebin`, `uridecodebin3`,
`decodebin3`, `playbin3`, ...).
Stream selection and buffering is handled internally, this allows them to
directly manage the elementary streams and stream selection.
