You can use ogg_stream_flush() to flush the ogg page buffers, which will
(assuming you're doing other things correctly) give you all the data that
has been encoded so far - this is NOT all the data that has been passed
to the encoder, however. 

The only way to get those samples to be flushed is to signal end of 
stream to the encoder, then continue output as normal. The extra
buffering here is crucial - it cannot be avoided (i.e. this is NOT
an API issue, it's a matter of how the encoder encodes data).
