ffmpeg: remove dead call to av_parser_change()

It's been a noop for years, and it's been argued that in-band headers
should not be forcedly removed without the user's explicit request.

Also, as the FIXME line stated, this is a job for a bitstream filter
like extract_extradata, remove_extradata, dump_extradata, and
filter_units.
