It's a hack which was created to allow for multiple options with
different defaults to refer to same field (e.g. 'b' vs 'ab'). There is
no need for it anymore.
The new function provides a more generic interface than av_fifo_peek()
for peeking at a FIFO buffer data.

Previously the string for AV_CH_LAYOUT_5POINT{0,1}_BACK was the same
of the string for AV_CH_LAYOUT_5POINT{0,1}.
This is required for discerning the two channel layouts, given a
channel layout string.
In commit bebe72f4a0, the enum AV_PICTURE_TYPE_* was introduced. There are still places in the code where pict_type is used as an integer and there is a case where "pict_type = 0" with the explanation "let ffmpeg decide what to do". The new enum does not know a value of 0 and C++ will fail if compiling such programs anyway as it is refered as an int (and you cannot patch them properly).
Deprecate av_get_bits_per_sample_fmt(), which was a misnamed function.
For the moment we don't have sample formats with a non-integer number
of bytes, in that case we may need to create a new
av_get_bits_per_sample() function. In the meanwhile we prefer to adopt
this variant, since avoids divisions by 8 all over the place.
The new layout is consistent with that of the av_image_() API, and
simplifies understanding and copy operations, it also preserves
alignment information which was lost with the previous layout.
This breaks API/ABI, but since the function was never referenced in
the code (and it isn't unlikely already used by someone) then this
should not be a problem.
Also deprecate av_get_pict_type_char() in favor of
av_get_picture_type_char().
The new enum and av_get_picture_type_char() are defined in libavutil.
This allows the use in libavfilter without the need to link against
libavcodec.

It is pretty hopeless that other considerable projects will adopt
libavutil alone in other projects. Projects that need small footprint
are better off with more specialized libraries such as gnulib or rather
just copy the necessary parts that they need. With this in mind, nobody
is helped by having libavutil and libavcore split. In order to ease
maintenance inside and around FFmpeg and to reduce confusion where to
put common code, avcore's functionality is merged (back) to avutil.

The bumps are for adding version.h and avio_{get/put}_str functions in
lavf and making av_dlog public in lavu.
