[vlc-devel] [PATCH] libavi now support simple SEEK

I've changed libavi behaviour to look for SEEK instead of FAST_SEEK.
Currently the only affected modules (which can potentially have CAN_SEEK and
CAN_FASTSEEK values different) are *ftp* and *http*. I believe in both cases
libavi will benefit from seeking there.
In addition I fixed some problems with seeking in ftp module. Now it works
pretty good with my local ftp server.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you believe my patch is incorrect.
