While looking into this, I noticed that this demuxer also does something
similar for the first packet which is not bounded (may scan the whole file)...
which is pretty bad.

This really made me ask: Why on earth are we doing this anyway? We don't
do this in any other demuxer, and it is a very badly behaved way to act,
even if we're not over a network.

That is, can we just remove these hacks?

Also, I noticed this demuxer has a bunch of what appears to be debug stuff
left over that is dead code. In general, it seems pretty bad.
