During a seek, or when playing a media with clipped start,
MCVR encounters preroll decode-only buffers that are not rendered.
Use C.BUFFER_FLAG_NO_OTHER_SAMPLE_DEPENDS_ON_THIS to determine
whether a decode-only buffer is unused as reference.
These buffers can be dropped before the decoder.
When this optimization is triggered, increment
decoderCounters.skippedInputBufferCount.
Tested in ExoPlayer demo app on "One hour frame counter (MP4)"
after enabling extractorsFactory.setMp4ExtractorFlags(
FLAG_READ_WITHIN_GOP_SAMPLE_DEPENDENCIES);
Observe: "sib" increases on each seek.

We currently enforce the skipping if the sample has a timestamp less
than the start time. While this may be the default desired behavior
for most implementations, it prevents an implementation from outputting
a sample with such a timestamp.
This change updates the logic to pre-fill the shouldBeSkipped flag
based on the input timestamp, and only check this flag on the output
buffer. None of the implementations in our library change timestamps
of samples, so this is equivalent to the previous code.

The flag is no longer used by our components and only set and checked
in a few places to guarantee compatiblity with existing renderers and
decoders that still use it.
The flag will be removed in the future due to its design limitations.

This gets rid of the reliance on the decode only flag that is still
set on input buffers to the decoder if they are less than the start
time.
We still need to set and check the decode-only flag in SimpleDecoder
to ensure compatbility with custom decoders that use the flag while
it's not fully removed.

In some cases, SimpleDecoder output needs to be skipped for rendering
because the decoder produces no data. This is one of the remaining
usages of BUFFER_FLAG_DECODE_ONLY at the moment and can be more
directly solved without using the flag. SimpleDecoder still needs to
check the flag though for backwards compatbility with custom decoders
while the flag is not completely removed.

MP4 edit lists sometimes ask to start playback between two samples.
If this happens, we currently change the timestamp of the first
sample to zero to trim it (e.g. to display the first frame for a
slightly shorter period of time). However, we can't do this to audio
samples are they have an inherent duration and trimming them this
way is not possible.

If the limited number of input buffers causes reading of all samples except the last one conveying end of stream, then the last frame will not be rendered.

This is a breaking change if the annotation itself is in use in Kotlin
code. It's judged that the IntDefs in this commit are unlikely to be
referred to often in Kotlin code. This is because they're either:
- Related to esoteric parts of the library, or
- In a common part of the library but only returned from methods (and
never passed to callback methods).
A follow-up change will fix the positions of existing usages to match
this new config.
