avformat/utils: Fix confusing return value for ff_read_packet()
Currently, ff_read_packet() sometimes forwards the return value of AVInputFormat.read_packet() (which should be zero on success, but isn't for all demuxers) and sometimes it overwrites this with zero. Furthermore, it uses two variables, one for the read_packet return value and one for other errors, which is a bit confusing; it is also unnecessary given that the documentation explicitly states that ff_read_packet() never returns positive values. Returning a positive value would lead to leaks with some callers (namely asfrtp_parse_packet and estimate_timings_from_pts). So always return zero in case of success. (This behaviour stems from a time before av_read_packet sanitized the return value of read_packet at all: It was added in commit 626004690c23c981f67228ea325dde3f35193988 and was unnecessary since 88b00723906f68b7563214c30333e48888dddf78.)
