Give Matroska subtitle cues a BlockDuration (#442)

Browse Source 
Subtitle cues were written as SimpleBlocks, which carry no duration. A
SimpleBlock tells the player when a cue starts but not how long to show it,
so players such as VLC and libass-based renderers display nothing for
S_TEXT/WEBVTT tracks muxed into Matroska/WebM.

Route a subtitle chunk that has a positive duration through a BlockGroup so
its BlockDuration is written, matching how additions are already handled.
Non-subtitle tracks and zero-duration cues keep using SimpleBlocks.
