demux_lavf: document intentional FFmpeg API violation
This field is documented as internal, so an API user should not access it. However, this is the only way to get some read statistics without replacing FFmpeg's entire HLS demuxer. (Using custom I/O as workaround doesn't work: the HLS code uses some weird internal APIs that cannot be provided by FFmpeg API users; I even made the author of the relevant patch to provide a public API, but which was shot down by another FFmpeg developer. So I take this as my right to access this field.) Mention this explicitly, as it affects ABI and API compatibility, and I don't want that anyone claims this was a "mistake". Add some explanations.
