Currently, AVStream contains an embedded AVCodecContext instance, which
is used by demuxers to export stream parameters to the caller and by
muxers to receive stream parameters from the caller. It is also used
internally as the codec context that is passed to parsers.
In addition, it is also widely used by the callers as the decoding (when
demuxer) or encoding (when muxing) context, though this has been
officially discouraged since Libav 11.
There are multiple important problems with this approach:
- the fields in AVCodecContext are in general one of
* stream parameters
* codec options
* codec state
However, it's not clear which ones are which. It is consequently
unclear which fields are a demuxer allowed to set or a muxer allowed to
read. This leads to erratic behaviour depending on whether decoding or
encoding is being performed or not (and whether it uses the AVStream
embedded codec context).
- various synchronization issues arising from the fact that the same
context is used by several different APIs (muxers/demuxers,
parsers, bitstream filters and encoders/decoders) simultaneously, with
there being no clear rules for who can modify what and the different
processes being typically delayed with respect to each other.
- avformat_find_stream_info() making it necessary to support opening
and closing a single codec context multiple times, thus
complicating the semantics of freeing various allocated objects in the
codec context.
Those problems are resolved by replacing the AVStream embedded codec
context with a newly added AVCodecParameters instance, which stores only
the stream parameters exported by the demuxers or read by the muxers.
This reverts commit 8ed82d8174.
SMPTE S377-1-2009c defines in F.4.1 that the Video Line Map should
always be an array with two 32 bit integers as elements. This is
repeated in G.2.12 with actual examples for progressive content,
where the second value would always be 0.
Additionally, the IRT MXF analyser also lists this as the only
error in the MXF output from ffmpeg: https://mxf-analyser-cloud.irt.de

Checking the codec context parameters to find out this information is
far too unreliable to be useful, so it is safer to assume B-frames are
always present.
Also support disabling them as they seem to cause problems to some
Users. They are also not allowed in IRT D-10 thus the default for
mxf_d10 is not to write them
This also decreases the filesize when no user comment are stored

To keep h264 parsing simple and fast, I used the framesize for selecting the right Panasonic codec label. The framesize is fixed for Panasonic AVC Intra.
This patch only supports AVCI50/100. But in all flavours, i.e. with no SPS/PPS in header.

gmtime isn't thread safe in general. In msvcrt (which lacks gmtime_r),
the buffer used by gmtime is thread specific though.
One call to localtime is left in avconv_opt.c, where thread safety
shouldn't matter (instead of making avconv depend on the libavutil
internal header).

None of these are likely unless the user is writing a file with two billion
streams or a duration of around two months.

There are interoperability issues with D-10 related to the channelcount property in the generic sound essence descriptor.
On one side, SMPTE 386M requires channel count to be 4 or 8, other values being prohibited.
The most widespread value is 8, which seems straightforward as it is the actual size of the allocated structure/disk space.
At the end, it appears that some vendors or workflows do require this descriptor to be 8, and otherwise just "fail".
On the other side, at least AVID and ffmpeg do write/set the channel count to the exact number of channels really "used",
usually 2 or 4, or any other value. And on the decoding side, ffmpeg (for example) make use of the channel count for probing
and only expose this limited number of audio streams
(which make sense but has strong impact on ffmpeg command line usage, output, and downstream workflow).
At the end, I find it pretty usefull to simply give ffmpeg the ability to force/set the channel count to any value the user wants.
(there are turnaround using complex filters, pans, amerge etc., but it is quite boring and requires the command line to be adapted to the input file properties)

Previously, AVStream.codec.time_base was used for that purpose, which
was quite confusing for the callers. This change also opens the path for
removing AVStream.codec.
The change in the lavf-mkv test is due to the native timebase (1/1000)
being used instead of the default one (1/90000), so the packets are now
sent to the crc muxer in the same order in which they are demuxed
(previously some of them got reordered because of inexact timestamp
conversion).
Use it instead of checking CODEC_FLAG_BITEXACT in the first stream's
codec context.
Using codec options inside lavf is fragile and can easily break when the
muxing codec context is not the encoding context.
