From: Romain Beauxis <toots at rastageeks.org>

Before the introduction of AV_CODEC_ID_TIMED_ID3 for timed_id3 metadata streams
in mpegts (commit 4a4437c0fbc8f7afe0c533070395a42e56b4ee75), AV_CODEC_ID_SMPTE_KLV
was the only existing codec for metadata.

It seems that this codec has a 5-bytes metadata header[1] that, for some reason,
was always skipped when decoding data packets.

However, when working with a AV_CODEC_ID_TIMED_ID3 streams, this results in the
5 first bytes of the payload being cut-off, which includes essential informations
such as the ID3 tag version.

This patch fixes the issue by keeping the 5-bytes skip only for AV_CODEC_ID_SMPTE_KLV
streams.

To test:
1. download this file: https://www.dropbox.com/s/jy8sih3pe8qskxb/bla.ts?dl=1

This file was download from: http://playertest.longtailvideo.com/adaptive/wowzaid3/playlist.m3u8

2. run this command:
  ffprobe -show_streams -select_streams 0 -show_packets -show_private_data \
          -show_data /path/to/bla.ts
