bytereader: add gst_byte_reader_init_sub_reader() and _get_sub_reader()

It would be nice to have API to init a sub-reader of a certain size from a
given byte reader. This is useful when reading chunked formats, one can easily
get a byte reader for a sub-chunk and make sure one never reads beyond the
sub-chunk boundary.
