ccess/ftp.c: Fix ftp pausing. Patch by Andrew Zaikin <andrew.zaikin at gmail.com...

I can see that if you are watching video over ftp and you are pausing playback for a couple of minutes, VLC is unable to resume playback, because corresponding FTP data connection is closed (getting "connection reset by peer" error). To solve this issue I would propose to seek to the current position when VLC is resuming playback. Seek operation in ftp re-open data connection - that is exactly what we need here.
