It serves absolutely no purpose other than to confuse potentional
Android developers about how to use hardware acceleration properly
on the the platform. The stagefright "API" is not public, and the
MediaCodec API is the proper way to do this.
Furthermore, stagefright support in avcodec needs a series of
magic incantations and version-specific stuff, such that
using it actually provides downsides compared just using the actual
Android frameworks properly, in that it is a lot more work and confusion
to get it even running. It also leads to a lot of misinformation, like
these sorts of comments (in [1]) that are absolutely incorrect.

Commit b272c3a5aa has sped up dsd_tablegen, and now table generation takes
~ 40k cycles. Thus, these tables can always be generated at runtime.
Tested with/without --enable-hardcoded-tables.

This gets rid of virtually useless hardcoded tables hackery. The reason
it is useless is that a 320 element lut is anyway placed regardless of
--enable-hardcoded-tables, from which all necessary tables are trivially
derived at runtime at very low cost:
sample benchmark (x86-64, Haswell, GNU/Linux, single run is really
what is relevant here since looping drastically changes the bench). Fluctuations
are on the order of 10% for the single run test:
39400 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 1 runs, 0 skips
25325 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 2 runs, 0 skips
18475 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 4 runs, 0 skips
15008 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 8 runs, 0 skips
13016 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 16 runs, 0 skips
12005 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 32 runs, 0 skips
11546 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 64 runs, 0 skips
11506 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 128 runs, 0 skips
11500 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 256 runs, 0 skips
11183 decicycles in aacsbr_tableinit, 509 runs, 3 skips
Tested with FATE with/without --enable-hardcoded-tables.

Register mmaldec as mpeg2 decoder. Supporting mpeg2 in mmaldec is just a
matter of setting the correct MMAL_ENCODING on the input port. To ease the
addition of further supported mmal codecs a macro is introduced to generate
the decoder and decoder class structs.

Long Term Prediction allows for prediction of spectral coefficients
via the previously decoded time-dependent samples. This feature
works well with harmonic content 2 or more frames long, like speech,
human or non-human, piano music or any constant tones at very low
bitrates.
It should be noted that the current coder is highly efficient and
the rate control system is unable to encode files at extremely
low bitrates (less than 14kbps seems to be impossible) so this
extension isn't capable of optimum operation. Dramatic difference
is observable with some types of audio and speech but for the most
part the audiable differences are subtle. The spectrum looks better
however so the encoder is able to harvest the additional bits that
this feature provies, should the user choose to enable it. So
it's best to enable this feature only if encoding at the absolutely
lowest bitrate that the encoder is capable of.
The bulk of calls to quantize_band_cost are replaced
by a call to a version that memoizes, greatly improving
performance, since during coefficient search there is
a great deal of repeat work.
Memoization cannot always be applied, so do this in a
different function, and leave the original as-is.
It was merged with the iff_ilbm decoder in commit
929a24efff.
Define AV_CODEC_ID_IFF_BYTERUN1 as AV_CODEC_ID_IFF_ILBM for API
compatibility.

With the move of some functions into templates
in aaccoder_twoloop.h and aaccoder_trellis.h,
make checkheaders started failing. Add them to
SKIPHEADERS as should be.
This commit finalizes AAC-Main profile encoding support
by implementing all mandatory and optional tools available
in the specifications and current decoders.
The AAC-Main profile reqires that prediction support be
present (although decoders don't require it to be enabled)
for an encoder to be deemed capable of AAC-Main encoding,
as well as TNS, PNS and IS, all of which were implemented
with previous commits or earlier of this year.
Users are encouraged to test the new functionality using either
-profile:a aac_main or -aac_pred 1, the former of which will enable
the prediction option by default and the latter will change the
profile to AAC-Main. No other options shall be changed by enabling
either, it's currently up to the users to decide what's best.
The current implementation works best using M/S and/or IS,
so users are also welcome to enable both options and any
other options (TNS, PNS) for maximum quality.
