gst-play: Don't force accurate seeking

This crept in several years ago sadly :(

The usage of accurate seeking should be reserved to use-cases where it is
essential that we seek to that position. This should not be the default.

There is a new option `--acurate-seeks/-a` to be able to force that.

Furthermore, if accurate seeks aren't required, a player should be using the
GST_SEEK_FLAG_KEY_UNIT flag to seek to the closest keyframe and provide the most
reactive experience.
