[Spice-devel] [spice-gtk 1/2] Fix possible multimedia time overflow

The multimedia time can easily overflow as is encoded in an
unsigned 32 bit and have a unit of milliseconds so it wrap
up every 49 days. Use some math that allow the number to overflow
without issues.
This could caused the client to stop handling streaming and
starting only queueing.

This patch should be applied independently on 2/2 as intended to be
merged upstream as a fix while 2/2 depends on this as it change same
code portions.
