The matroska specification states the start time and duration of subtitle entries are encoded in the block TimeStamp and BlockDuration. Furthermore, for all subtitle formats except S_HDMV/PGS the BlockDuration must always be defined and have an absolute value even if it is simply 0. ffmpeg assumes that a duration of 0 means the duration is still unknown and tries to adjust based on the next packet pts. This is wrong for all formats except S_HDMV/PGS. Since changing the semantics of duration 0 is not an option (touches too many parts of the code) this change introduces AV_PKT_FLAG_FIXED_DURATION flag which decoders might use to flag the duration of a given packet should not be changed.
