demux_mkv: document probe-start-time option and enable it by default
This is useful with live streams, and it's not much worse than the h264
first packet hack, which reads some data anyway.
For some reason, the option wasn't even documented, so do that.
In addition, print the start time even if it's negative. That should not
be possible, but for some reason, the field is an int64_t copied from an
uint64_t so... whatever. Keeping the logging slightly more straight
forward is better anyway.
