XvMC has long ago been superseded by newer acceleration APIs, such as
VDPAU, and few downstreams still support it. Furthermore XvMC is not
implemented within the hwaccel framework, but requires its own specific
code in the MPEG-1/2 decoder, which is a maintenance burden.
This can be optionally disabled whith the "output_corrupt" flags
option. When in "output_corrupt" mode, incomplete frames are
signalled through AVFrame.flags FRAME_FLAG_INCOMPLETE_FRAME.

The options table is used in tools built by the host compiler and the
deprecation macros pull in bits that are not safe to use if host and
target compiler differ.
This allows us to get rid of them on the next major bump. All of the
above are functionally irrelevant, and most of them are unused, except
the vp3 one, which is used wrongly in the bfin arch optimizations.
Since it is declared as a string AVOption, the generic freeing code
attempts to free it on codec close. Some codecs might have already freed
it elsewhere (or didn't even allocate it with av_malloc() in the first
place), so this might lead to an invalid free.
There is no point in having this field accessible as an AVOption, so
remove it from the options table.
Fixes Bug 380.

These functions are not faster than other mmx implementations on
any hardware I have been able to test on, and they are horribly
inaccurate. There is thus no reason to ever use them.

Its documentation states that it is allocated/freed by the caller, but
it is declared as an AV_OPT_TYPE_STRING AVOption. Since
367732832f the AVOptions system frees
strings automatically. This can be considered an API break, since it
won't work when the caller doesn't use av_malloc() to allocate the
memory or wants to use the string after closing the codec.
Since there is not much value in this field being an AVOption, the best
solution is to remove it from the options table.
In most places where it's used, it's as a pointless write-only field.
Only rv10 decoder actually reads from it, but it stores some internal
version info in it. There is no reason for it to be in a public field.
