Only the flacdec change was actually necessary. The other one gives a warning
but does not break anything, however this warning indicates that this file is
not according to the FLAC spec. It seems like the blocking strategy here
changes for every block, while the spec says: The "blocking strategy" bit must
be the same throughout the entire stream.

libflac also ignores this, and just printing the warning seems useful.

    flacdec: Add support for variable block size files and remove dead code

    This dead code wasn't used since the 1.0 port and would need to
    be modified heavily for variable block size support.
