lavf: prevent infinite loops while flushing in avformat_find_stream_info

If no data was seen for a stream decoder are returning 0 when fed with
empty packets for flushing. We can stop flushing when the decoder does
not return delayed delayed frames anymore. Changes try_decode_frame()
return value to got_picture or negative error.
