its a bit guesswork but
decode_slice() should maybe update s->mb_y in the hwaccel case

(if no better idea exists setting it to mb_height when the bitstream
 end is reached could be tried)

when mb_y is updated then ff_h263_resync() wont be run unless its
needed

the patch could interfere with error concealment beause even if we
are over the end we could have read over a resync marker and there
still might be an intact slice start previously that wasnt decoded
