splitmuxsink: Handle frame reordering due to B frames better

Sebastian Dröge requested to merge slomo/gstreamer:gst-plugins-good-splitmuxsink-reordering into main

Copied from https://gitlab.freedesktop.org//gstreamer/gst-plugins-good/-/merge_requests/1087

Instead of assuming that the PTS of a keyframe is the lowest PTS of a
GOP, wait until the DTS has passed this PTS and take the minimum PTS up
to that point. That way the minimum PTS of a GOP can be determined, at
least for closed GOP streams. Open GOP streams still can't be handled
properly.

By knowing the minimum PTS of each GOP, keyframes can be requested at
the correct time relative to the GOP (and thus fragment) start and
fragment overflow calculations can calculate the correct durations of
the GOPs.
