These defines are also used in other contexts than just AVCodecContext
ones, e.g. in libavformat. Furthermore, given that these defines are
public, the AV-prefix is the right one, so deprecate (and not just move)
the FF-macros.

This hugely reduces the echo which was introduced with the previous
commit (though likely because previously everything was broken).
Makes LTP actually worthwhile now.

There were some errors in the calculation as well as an entire
unnecessary loop to find the gain coefficient. Merge the
two loops.
Thanks to @ubitux for the suggestions and testing.
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.
