Apparently, some live streams can delete segments too early, maybe
because the client is too far behind. In this case, it's better to skip
the segment, instead of returning EOF. (Yes, the HLS demuxer actually
returns AVERROR_EOF if opening the segment returns a 404 HTTP error.)

Properly take stream_index into account so that a keyframe will be
looked for in the specified stream_index only.
Similarly, only check timestamp validity against the specified
stream_index.
Also remove code for stream_index == -1 case which does not actually
happen as it is handled by generic code.
This is based on an initial patch by James Deng.

Do not try to delay opening newly required playlists until a segment
switch. Applications expect that newly selected undiscarded streams are
available immediately, especially with alternative rendition streams
(selectable audio/subtitle tracks).
One might think that delaying variant stream switch until a segment
switch would allow a "seamless" switch without us having to download a
specific segment from two different variant playlists. However, that is
not the case, since the application would have to keep the previous
stream available (undiscarded) until the first packet of the newly
selected stream arrives, but by that time the demuxer would have already
downloaded the next segment of both variants.

As per spec 3.4.3 ("A client MUST NOT assume that segments with the same
sequence number in different Media Playlists contain matching content.")
we cannot use sequence numbers for packet ordering.
This can be seen e.g. in the subtitle streams of
bipbop_16x9_variant.m3u8 that have considerably longer segments and
therefore different numbering.
Since the code now exclusively syncs using timestamps that may wrap, add
some additional checking for that.
According to the HLS spec all the timestamps should be in 33-bit MPEG
format and synced together.
v2: cleaner wrap detection
v3: further wrap detection improvements

While selecting a packet to return to caller in read_packet(), the code
corrects the timestamps for starting timestamps.
However, this is wrong, since for live streams the initial timestamps
might differ just because of the time delay between the retrieval of the
various Media Playlists.
Fortunately, spec 6.2.4 mandates that all variant streams must have
matching timestamps, so we do not need to correct for initial
timestamps.
Drop the correction code.
Note that ID3 timestamps were previously ignored, so this code was
previously actually needed.

Improve selection of the segment sequence number when restarting the
reception of a playlist after it was suspended due to being unneeded
(due to discard flags).
The current code assumes that each playlist contains matching data with
the same sequence number, while spec 3.4.3 specifically says that that
is not the case. Often subtitle playlists also have longer target
durations as well, causing the selection to be completely wrong.
Instead prefer using the playlist segment duration information for
non-live playlists, and other means if that is not possible.

Seeking needs to be tracked on a per-playlist basis, since the resyncing

HLS protocol version 4 added alternative renditions to the
specification (e.g. alternative audio tracks).
The EXT-X-MEDIA tags can also contain metadata for "renditions" (i.e.
tracks) of the main Media Playlist.
Add support for those.
Note that the same rendition (AVStream) may be associated with multiple
variants (AVPrograms).
Alternative subtitle tracks will require additional work and are
therefore not enabled yet.

Session data (cookies, user-agent) is not being sent on payload requests with
encrypted HLS streams This causes services like Akamai to give a 403 forbidden
when requesting the TS files, because they expect the same cookies
and user-agent on all requests
Not all "sub-playlists" are variant playlists (containing the same
content with a different bitrate, etc) in the current version of the HLS
specification. They can now also be alternative renditions, containing
e.g. alternative audio tracks etc.

When first_timestamp was stored as-is, its actual time base
wasn't known later in the seek function.
Additionally, the logic (from 795d9594cf) for scaling it
based on stream_index is flawed - stream_index in the seek
function only specifies which stream the seek timestamp refers
to, but obviously doesn't say anything about which stream
first_timestamp belongs to.
In the cases where stream_index was >= 0 and all streams had the
same time base, this didn't matter in practice.
Seeking taking first_timestamp into account is problematic
when one variant is mpegts (with real timestamps) and one variant
is raw ADTS (with timestamps only being accumulated packet
duration), where the variants start at totally different timestamps.

Without the information, an application may choose audio from one
variant and video from another variant, which leads to fetching two
variants from the network. This enables av_find_best_stream() to find
matching audio and video streams, so that only one variant is fetched.

Also adjust the streams timestamps according to their start
timestamp when comparing. This helps getting correctly interleaved
packets if one stream lacks timestamps (such as a plain ADTS
stream when the other variants are full mpegts) when the others
have timestamps that don't start from zero.
This probably doesn't work properly if such a stream is
temporarily disabled (via the discard flags) and then reenabled,
and such streams are hard to correctly sync against the other
streams as well - but this works better than before at least.
The segment number restriction makes sure all variants advance
roughly at the same pace as well.

This serves as a safeguard; normally we want to use the dts
comparison to interleave packets from all active variants. If that
dts comparison for some reason doesn't work as intended, make sure
that all packets in all variants for a certain sequence number have
been returned before moving on to the next one.
