[vorbis] RC4/1.0 and peeling

Yes.  All current oggs (since RC-2 or so) are peelable once the peeler is 
created.  Though I seem to remember hearing some rumblings about encoders 
being able to "hint" files to allow for better-quality peeling, but I'm not 
sure how much of a difference is really being talked about.

As far as I've heard, current oggs peeled to a certain quality will probably 
sound comparable to one encoded directly to that quality.  Maybe identical, 
but I think that's what the hinting is for.
