WebVTTParser's identifier buffering can ignore subsequent lines

[Brendan Long]

In WebVTTParser::parseBytes, we do this:


    String line = collectNextLine(data, length, &position);

    switch (m_state) {
    case Initial:
        // Buffer up at least 9 bytes before proceeding with checking for the file identifier.
        m_identifierData.append(data, length);
        if (m_identifierData.size() < bomLength + fileIdentifierLength)
            return;

But it doesn't work in this situation:

    parser->parseBytes("WEBVTT\n\n", 8);
    parser->parseBytes("00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.000\nCue text\n\n", strlen("00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.000\nCue text\n\n");

The first parseBytes call has less than 9 bytes, so it does nothing. The second parseBytes call collects the current line ("00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:10.000"), but since the state is `Initial`, it just checks the identifier and throws away the current line. Now it collects the next line ("Cue text"), and because we're in state `Header`, it treats it as a comment and throws it away too.

I guess I should explain the patch: If `position == line.sizeInBytes()`, then we haven't parsed a line ending yet, so it's safe to continue buffering. If `position > line.sizeInBytes()`, then we parsed the entire line and should check it now.

Eric, can you review this again? All I changed was adding the "Reviewed by nobody (Oops)" line back so the commit queue would like it.
