avformat/hls: add http_persistent option
This teaches the HLS demuxer to use the HTTP protocols
multiple_requests=1 option, to take advantage of "Connection:
Keep-Alive" when downloading playlists and segments from the HLS server.
With the new option, you can avoid TCP connection and TLS negotiation
overhead, which is particularly beneficial when streaming via a
high-latency internet connection.
Similar to the http_persistent option recently implemented in hlsenc.c
