Subject: [PATCH] flvparse: Make script tag parsing more flexible.

* The nb_elements for arrays is just an indication, we can therefore ignore
  it and carry on parsing metadata items until we reach the end marker.
* If type == 3, then the script tag contains a list of object followed
  by the end marker.

Refactor code slightly to handle both cases
