GPAC GW sometimes stops download media segments for segment timeline

[TuanTranBPK]

An external multicast server sends a multicast stream with segment timelime to GPAC multicast gateway. The GPAC multicast gateway is able receive and decode the data. However, sometimes the GPAC gateway stops downloading the media segments and throws the logs from dash_client.c file "GF_LOG(GF_LOG_WARNING, GF_LOG_DASH, ("[DASH] Segment list has not been updated for more than %d ms - assuming end of period\n", now - group->time_at_first_reload_required));".

It's probably cause by the condition "if (timer < 2 * group->segment_duration * 1000)", when I tried to increase the timer to "if (timer < 3 * group->segment_duration * 1000), the issue seems to be disappeared. Maybe, the timer value/threshold should be reevaluated.

@soheibthriber and I acknowledge the issue. May be a duplicate of #3.

we ported the issue to the main gpac repo, so maybe we can follow on this there : gpac/gpac#2942

The pull request was merged in GPAC. Problem is gone in all the streams I have.
