demux: simplify and improve performance of backward playback stepping

The step_backwards function set reader_head to the start of the current
cache range. This was completely unnecessary and made it _much_ slower.
Remove the code that adjusts reader_head. Merge the rest of the code
into the only caller and remove the function.

The comment on the removed code was quite right. It was "inefficient".
Removing it delegates going to an early position to the normal seek
code, triggered by find_backward_restart_pos() incremental back seek
logic. I suppose especially audio benefits from this, because this
happens for every single audio packet (except maybe freaky bullshit like
TrueHD, which has "keyframes").

The blabla about performance in the removed comments is still true, but
now applies to the seek code itself only.
