Fixed bug when seeking to pos < dataoffset

[ed95]

When calling ov_pcm_seek() to a sample offset smaller than the calculated data offset for the file's stream, ov_pcm_seek_page() can fail to find the correct page due to the begin pos for the page search being set to the data offset. This causes audible glitches in some .ogg files, for example the example file from the Ogg Vorbis Wikipedia page.

This PR adds a special case for when pos < vf->dataoffsets[link] and adds a check for 'looking for data in first page' special case. I'm not sure if it's entirely robust, but it fixes the issue in the above file and some others. This may also be related to #60.

I suggest removing the C99'ism for initialBegin

[ed95]

What would you suggest? We need to store it before begin is modified below in order for the check later to work.

What would you suggest?

E.g., the first hunk can be like:

diff --git a/lib/vorbisfile.c b/lib/vorbisfile.c

I see - I've made that change now.

What is the status of this patch?

[ed95]

We made this change in our local copy of vorbis in JUCE in commit juce-framework/JUCE@35d0a8c8. We've had no complaints from users so far so it'd be great if it could get merged into main.
