Up until now, the length field of most level 1 elements has been written
using eight bytes, although it is known in advance how much space the
content of said elements will take up so that it would be possible to
determine the minimal amount of bytes for the length field. This
commit changes this.

Up until now the EBML Header length field has been written with eight
bytes, although the EBML Header is always so small that only one byte
is needed for it. This patch saves seven bytes for every Matroska/Webm
file.

This removes the current API violating behavior of overwritting the stream's
extradata during packet filtering, something that should not happen after the
av_bsf_init() call.
The bitstream filter generated extradata is no longer available during
write_header(), and as such not usable with non seekable output. The FATE
tests are updated to reflect this.
