 In libmythtv/ringbuffer.cpp Coverity reports two seeks with uncheck return
 values.  While the comment says the seek(s) can never fail, static
 analysis suggests checking is goodness (and "impossible" failures do
 occur).  The included patch checks the return values, and logs an error if
 the impossible occurs.

 Fixes Coverity 746749 & 1073815
