[PATCH] Allow fseek optimization also for cookied files.

[Giovanni Bajo <rasky@develer.com>]

Currently, fseek allows for a seek optimization where it does not
actually seek if the target is within the current buffer. This
optimization, though, is disabled in case of files with custom seek
functions, such as those created by funopen / fopencookie. 

This prevents a useful use case of those functions: creating a transparent
streaming decompressor (eg: gzopen). In fact, it is customary to
allow streaming decompressors to be able to seek forward (by skipping
bytes), but because of the missing seek optimization, even a simple
one-byte seek forward might become a backward seek (that is, a seek
that moves from the end of the current buffer backward to the seek
destination within the buffer).

Since the check was explicit, there might be good reasons for it that
elude me. It looks to me that if buffering is allowed by files
returned by funopen, then the seek optimization cannot be a violation
of the funopen protocol, because otherwise it should also be invalid
to call the underlying readfn callback with size BUFSIZ when the user
requested a different size. People that want an absolute 1:1 match
between user-level calls and callbacks can obtain that by disabling
buffering.
