Move the probe loop from av_open_input_file() into its own method av_probe_input_buffer() so that it can be reused. Here are a few differences to the original way things were probed: - maximum probe buffer size can be specified as a parameter. - offset within the stream to probe from can be specified as a parameter. - instead of seeking back to the start each time a probe fails, stream data is appended to the reallocated buffer. This lowers the amount of data read from the stream (there is no repetition) and results in fewer closed and reopened streams (when seeking fails). Patch by Micah F.
