fix a re-synchronization problem in bluray reading
bd_seek doesn't seek to exactly where you tell it to. It goes to the nearest
access unit that is *before* the position you request. When we loose
TS sync, we were doing a bd_seek in the process of resynchronizing that
would take us to a much earlier position. Then we would hit the same
bad location and loose sync again. Lather, rinse, repeat...

Adjust x264 qpmin for QT compatibility.

Improved logging of keyint min/max
And small tweak to keyint_max calculation.
x264 slightly changed the way the automatic min-keyint is calculated.
Also, keyint infinite was added. This does not cause any encoding issues,
but depending on the settings and the framerate, the log contained
keyint values that don't correspond to the actual encode's values.
The keyint_max was calculated, 59.94 fps sources will get a keyint of 599
rather than 600. With this change, It is rounded to the closest integer
then multiplied by 10.

fix windows crash and probably other random nastiness.
Initializing extradata_size to non-zero makes ffmpeg think it
needs to parse extradata. But in the non-broken-by-microsoft case
we leave extradata as uninitialized junk. So ffmpeg parses uninitialized
data and sometimes marches off into the weeds.
