stream_filter/httplive.c: Start playback of live HLS streams near the end of the playlist.

Playback of live streams with HLS started at index 0 from the downloaded playlists. For
live streams it is more natural to be closer to the end of the playlist, but not within
the last 3 segments of the stream.
