libavformat/matroskadec: set fixed duration for subtitles

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.
