This reverts commit 478fb1a473
("Detect and attempt to correct timeline sync issues") and commit
4334b6ea90 ("Add mediaSegmentReferences
to shakaExtern.Stream").
Timeline correction only addresses one class of broken live content,
while actually making it more difficult to diagnose other classes of
broken live content.
Issue #933

This will allow us, in many cases, to detect time sync issues in
content by comparing the media segment references to the presentation
timeline. If the references are outside the timeline, it may indicate
a common form of bad content, and we may be able to attempt to correct
it.
In some cases, the references are not available upfront. We can't
detect time sync issues in DASH with SegmentTemplate+duration, because
the references are not explicitly described by the manifest. We can't
detect time sync issues in DASH with SegmentBase, because the segment
index requires additional fetching and parsing. (SegmentBase is not
used with live content, so this should be a non-issue.)
This only introduces the new data, but does not use it for detection
or correction yet.
