dashenc: Heuristically fill in the duration of packets that need it

This avoids that the mp4 muxer does a similar heuristic, adjusting
the timestamps in a way that the dash muxer doesn't know the actual
timestamps written to the file in the end. By making sure that the
mp4 muxer internal heuristic isn't applied, we know the exact
timestamps written to file, so that the timestamps in manifest match
the files.
