+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #613351 +++

BaseParse (and other parsers/demuxers) should not do any I/O in the seek
handler, as currently done in gst_base_parse_locate_time(). This should be
done from the streaming thread instead, and the element should maybe also post
PROGRESS messages on the bus about seek started/finished/failed.
