From: Romain Beauxis <toots at rastageeks.org>

This is the second version of a patch to add support for in-stream metadata
updates in the ogg/flac parser.

Currently, FFmpeg is unable to decode metadata in chained ogg/flac bitstreams
past the initial track. This impacts all users relying on the FFmpeg backend to
decode chained ogg/flac streams.

Documentation on ogg chained bitstreams can be found here: https://xiph.org/ogg/doc/oggstream.html

Code for detecting metadata frame is based on libavcodec/flacdec.c, code for
handling comment update is based on libavformat/oggparsevorbis.c.

This fix has been successfully tested locally. To reproduce:
* Find a ogg/flac icecast stream, for instance from: https://dir.xiph.org/
* Decode the stream using FFMpeg API
* Check the associated AVStream metadata

I have not been able to find a reproduction test with the ffmpeg or ffplay
CLI. However, the patch is confirmed to fix the backend from liquidsoplaySee:
https://github.com/savonet/liquidsoap/issues/3010

I would be happy to provide more details or even a reproduction minimal example
using the C API.
