[PATCH 4/5] m3u8: Don't try to match URIs when we have media sequences

It is legal for a stream to reuse segments (marking discontinuities as
needed). Uplynk delivers such playlists for their placeholder loops.

Leave the URI scanning in place for playlists which have no
EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE tag. This should be harmless since the spec
requires these playlists to not be missing segments (RFC8216 6.2.2),
so we should be always matching on the first segment.
