avformat/matroskadec: Link to parents in syntax tables
By linking to the syntax of the parent (i.e. the containing master
element) one can check whether an element is actually part of a higher
level in the EBML hierarchy. Knowing this is important for
unknown-length levels, because they end when an element that doesn't
belong to this, but to a higher hierarchy level is encountered.
Sometimes there are different syntaxes dealing with the same elements.
In this case it is important to use a parent that contains all the
elements at the parent level; whether this is the syntax actually used
to enter the child's level is irrelevant. This affects the list of level
1 elements (which has been used as parent for matroska_cluster, too) and
it affects recursive elements (currently only the SimpleTag), where the
non-recursive parent has to be choosen.
This is in preparation for a patch that redoes level handling.
Finally, the segment id has been added to ebml_syntax. This will enable
handling of unknown-length EBML headers.
