FFmpeg 5.0 player: stop reading raw data at EOF

Since the update to FFmpeg 5.0, when FFmpeg+libao internal player is
selected, most sounds fail to be pronounced. Furthermore, each failed
pronunciation attempt increases GoldenDict's CPU usage. Finally,
GoldenDict continues to hang and utilize the CPU cores when the user
attempts to exit it.

The reason for the issue is: GoldenDict's readAudioData() returns 0 at
EOF but FFmpeg expects the callback to return AVERROR_EOF. As a result,
internal player's threads are busy calling readAudioData() indefinitely.

a606f27f4c
documented the expected return value of the read_packet callback.
252500a78f
removed the code that handled the deprecated 0 return value gracefully.

The relevant deprecation warning
"Invalid return value 0 for stream protocol" had been flooding
GoldenDict's output for years

Fixes #1489.
