This makes little sense due to how HLS works, and only causes some
additional annoyances if the HLS read_seek function fails (for example
if it's a live stream). It was most likely unintended.

I guess in theory, this might allow skipping forward a bit, but let's be
honest, API users are better off to implement such things manually if
they want it. It also didn't actually work for me and only caused stupid
behavior.
