The only reason I went with the solution I did was that I tried messing around
with the stream_index stuff but it always ended in crashes.  The issue with
stream_index is that it shows up in avisynth_next_stream, and it also shows
up in avisynth_read_seek (avisynth_read_packet calls avisynth_next_stream).

My attempts to modify it in read_packet or read_seek just didn't work, and if it
was supposed to be done individually in read_packet_video and
read_packet_audio after the call to av_new_packet, I wasn't sure how to
actually do that.
