Seek external subtitles

If the input is a regular file, gmerlin_avdecoder can scan the directory for matching
subtitle files. For a file movie.mpg, possible subtitle files are e.g.
movie_english.srt, movie_german.srt. The rule is, that the first part of the filename
of the subtitle file must be equal to the movie filename up to the extension.
Furthermore, the subtitle filename must have an extension supported by any of the
subtitle readers. Subtitle seeking can be disabled, enabled for video files or
enabled for all files.

seeking works fine. Some formats are only seekable in sample accurate mode. Choose
"When necessary" to enable seeking for most formats with the smallest overhead.
