player: update status line cache display
Replace the "+" with "/". The "+" was supposed to imply that the cache is the sum of the time (demuxer cache) and the size in bytes (stream cache). We could not provide something nicer, because we had no idea how many seconds of media was buffered in the stream cache. Now the stream cache is done, and both the duration and byte size show the amount buffered in the demuxer cache. Hopefully "/" is better to imply this properly. Update the manpage explanations too.
