AVOutputFormat has default codecs for audio, video and subtitle
and often these are the only codecs of this type allowed.
So add a flag to AVOutputFormat so that this can be checked generically.

More exactly: Not more than one stream of each type for which
a default codec (i.e. AVOutputFormat.(audio|video|subtitle)_codec)
is set; for those types for which no such codec is set (or for
which no designated default codec in AVOutputFormat exists at all)
no streams are permitted.
Given that with this flag set the default codecs become more important,
they are now set explicitly to AV_CODEC_ID_NONE for "unset";
the earlier code relied on AV_CODEC_ID_NONE being equal to zero,
so that default static initialization set it accordingly;
but this is not how one is supposed to use an enum.

This commit does for AVOutputFormat what commit
20f9727018 did for AVCodec:
It adds a new type FFOutputFormat, moves all the internals
of AVOutputFormat to it and adds a now reduced AVOutputFormat
as first member.
This does not affect/improve extensibility of both public
or private fields for muxers (it is still a mess due to lavd).

It is supposed to be a flag. The only currently defined value is
AVIO_SEEKABLE_NORMAL, but other ones may be added in the future.
However all the current lavf code treats this field as a bool (mainly
for historical reasons).
Change all those cases to properly check for AVIO_SEEKABLE_NORMAL.
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.
Since 596e5d4783, this is not necessary anymore. It also allows to
actually disable the flushing, improving write performance (but
possibly giving worse latency in real-time streaming).
