 sense to not generate all the HLS segments by default for my use case (not
 a live stream, but a fixed-size video with different resolutions served
 through HLS to allow the in-browser player to auto-select the appropriate
 one for the client's bandwidth).

 No, hls_list_size 0 can fix this problem, you set hls_list_size to 5, then
 there have 6 fragments, it will remove the frist fragment to keep the m3u8
 list window size if 5 fragments. What about you think?
