BMediaEventLooper: Return to simple lateness computation

* Remove enqueue_time again.
* Lateness seems generally useless. No way to get something useful
experimentally. The commit noise however was useful, the port wait is
behaving more in accordance with the lateness calculus.
* Fixes #12817 and possibly #12594.
