ce3b45f186 fix(matroska): find Segments past the fast scan limit (#1398)
Element::factory() rejects any element whose declared size runs past the bound it is given, and
read() passes the Fast scan limit as that bound. A Segment spans practically the whole file, so
under ReadStyle::Fast every Matroska over 512 KiB is rejected and no tags are read:

  EBML: datasize too great: 1003369 > (524288 - 52)
  Failed to find Matroska segment

The limit is readLimited()'s, which already applies it to skip Cues and to bound the walk over a
segment with no usable SeekHead. The lookup only needs the file length.

Correctly handle offsets and scan limits:

- maxOffset: Maximum offset from the beginning of the file; the end of
  the element must be before this offset.
- scanLimit: Offset from the current file position until which scanning
  for elements is allowed. Normally, elements are scanned up to the end
  of the enclosing master element or the end of the file, but in Fast
  reading mode, it is limited to FAST_SCAN_LIMIT, which is 512 kB.
- maxScanOffset: scanLimit from the current file position
