Users should switch to the superior AVFifo API.
Unfortunately AVFifoBuffer fields cannot be marked as deprecated because
it would trigger a warning wherever fifo.h is #included, due to
inlined av_fifo_peek2().
Many AVFifoBuffer users operate on fixed-size elements (e.g. pointers),
but the current FIFO API deals exclusively in bytes, requiring extra
complexity in all these callers.
Add a new AVFifo API creating a FIFO with an element size
that may be larger than a byte. All operations on such a FIFO then
operate on complete elements.
This API does not reuse AVFifoBuffer and its API at all, but instead uses
an opaque struct called AVFifo. The AVFifoBuffer API will be deprecated
in a future commit once all of its users have been switched to the new
API.
Not reusing AVFifoBuffer also allowed to use the full range of size_t
from the beginning.
Trying to write too much will currently overwrite previous data. Trying
to read too much will either av_assert2() in av_fifo_drain() or return
old data. Trying to peek too much will either av_assert2() in
av_fifo_generic_peek_at() or return old data.
Return an error code in all these cases, which is safer and more
consistent.
It returns a pointer inside the fifo's buffer, which cannot be safely
used without accessing AVFifoBuffer internals. It is easier and safer to
use av_fifo_generic_peek_at().
The new function provides a more generic interface than av_fifo_peek()
for peeking at a FIFO buffer data.

Passing an explicit filename to this command is only necessary if the
documentation in the @file block refers to a file different from the
one the block resides in.

This reduces the number of false dependencies on header files and

Yes this breaks ABI/API but ive already broken it and will bump avutil major
soon.

Otherwise doxygen complains about ambiguous filenames when files exist
under the same name in different subdirectories.

Consistently apply this rule: the guard name is obtained from the
filename by stripping the leading "lib", converting '/' and '.' to
'_' and uppercasing the resulting name. Guard names in the root
directory have to be prefixed by "FFMPEG_".
