queue2: fix seeking query when operating as queue

Minimal patch.

Still, I am tempted to say we should just revert the patch

    queue2: Process SEEKING query

    Add QUERY_SEEKING handling to queue2, so RTMP live streams become
    seekable when a queue2 in download or ringbuffer mode is inserted:

    rtmpsrc ! queue2 ! flvdemux

    https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=733351


in its entirety for now. I suspect that almost all demuxers/parsers will not be
able to handle any non-0 based byte range for seeking and assume that the
resource is seekable in its entirety. So this patch enables a very specialised
use case whilst potentially causing problems for a lot of other use cases. Or
perhaps it should be opt-in then.
