[GTK] media/video-seek-past-end-playing.html times out

Seems to happen only in 32-bit Release:

And flakily

It seems that the GStreamer backend is not correctly implemeting the http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/the-video-element.html#seeking behaviour, especially step 5. 
"If the new playback position is later than the end of the media resource, then let it be the end of the media resource instead."

Setting a new video.currentPosition that's larger than the length of the video actually makes the playback stop. No more timeupdate events are fired after such a seek position was set.

This step is handled in HTMLMediaElement::seek().

Could it be an issue with the duration() reporting?

Yes, true, after looking a bit closer, I found that out.

I actually have a patch - it seems that didEnd() does not need to explicitly pause the stream (at least for forward playback), then things go fine for at least this test case. I'll check reverse playback and run all media tests again for GTK.

Also, while looking at the code, I started to think we don't need to leave m_seeking state in GST_STATE_CHANGE_ASYNC case - only, after GST_STATE_CHANGE_SUCCESS or GST_STATE_CHANGE_FAILURE. What do you think?
