In the future, do not use `public` inheritance in *libmatroska* for
said entities as that would have prevented people from using it the
way it is now.

You don't need to rename it, one could argue that *"Internal"* means
the internal material of each block, where `KaxBlock` and
`KaxSimpleBlock` are wrappers around said internal material.

It might also be somewhat problematic renaming it now, unless you want
to break a lot of projects. I searched *github* for people using
`KaxInternalBlock`, and I am definitely not the first, and probably
not the last.
