avformat/flacenc: Only update streaminfo if it has changed

An AVStream's codecpar is supposed to be filled by the caller before
avformat_write_header(); if the CodecParameters change, the caller
should signal this via packet side data, but not touch the AVStream's
codecpar.

The FLAC muxer checks for packet side data containing updated extradata,
yet if nothing has arrived by the time the trailer is written, the
already written extradata is overwritten by the very same extradata
again, unless the output is unseekable, in which case a warning that the
FLAC header can't be rewritten is emitted.

This commit changes this by only trying to rewrite the extradata if a
new streaminfo arrived via packet side data. Only then is a warning
emitted in case the output is unseekable.
