  [GStreamer] Get length from content-length header when available in chunked 
content encoding
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=266691

Reviewed by Xabier Rodriguez-Calvar.

Currently, chunked content-encoding media content transfers are considered not 
to have a
defined length and are treated as live videos (no seek available, the whole 
content is
downloaded in a monolithic way). However, sometimes the web server specifies a
content-length that, even if not mandatory, gives a hint about the total 
length. If that
info was used, we could treat the download in a much more flexible way, 
downloading only the
required pieces on demand, as the player needs them, and also enabling seek.

See: https://github.com/WebPlatformForEmbedded/WPEWebKit/issues/1257

This patch leverages the information supplied by the content-length header when
content-encoding is set as chunked.

* Source/WebCore/platform/graphics/gstreamer/WebKitWebSourceGStreamer.cpp:
(CachedResourceStreamingClient::responseReceived): Set length with the right 
information when the circumstances are appropriate.
