This change introduces basic support for HEVC decoding through vdpau.
Right now, there are problems with the nvidia driver/library implementation
that mean that frames are incorrectly laid out in memory when they are
returned from the decoder, and it is normally impossible to recover the
complete decoded frame due to loss of data from alignment inconsistencies.
I obviously hope that nvidia will be fixing it in due course - I've verified
the problems exist with their example application.
As such, this support is not useful for any real world application, but I
believe that it is correct (with the caveat that the mangled frames may hide
problems) and will work properly once the nvidia problem is fixed.
Right now it appears that any file encoded by x265 or nvenc is decoded
correctly, but that's because these files don't use a bunch of HEVC
features.
Quick summary:
Features that seem to work:
1) Short Term References
2) Scaling Lists
3) Tiling
Features with known problems:
1) Long Term References
It's hard to tell what's going on here. After I read the nvidia example
app that does not set the IsLongTerm flag on LTRs, and changed my code,
a bunch of frames using LTR started to display correctly, but there
are still samples with glitches that are related to LTRs.
In terms of real world files, both x265 and nvenc only use short term
refs from this list. The divx encoder seems similar.

h264.h and hevc.h are mutually exclusive due to defining some of the same
names. As such, we need to avoid forcing h264.h to be included if we want
hevc decode acceleration to be possible.
However, some of the pre-hwaccel helper functions need h264.h. To avoid
messy collisions, let's move the declaration of all those helpers to
a separate header which we will exclude for the hevc support (which will
be hwaccel-only).

Decoding acceleration may work even if the codec level is higher than
the stated limit of the VDPAU driver. Or the problem may be considered
acceptable by the user. This flag allows skipping the codec level
capability checks and proceed with decoding.
Applications should obviously not set this flag by default, but only if
the user explicitly requested this behavior (and presumably knows how
to turn it back off if it fails).

This function provides an explicit VDPAU device and VDPAU driver to
libavcodec, so that the application is relieved from codec specifics
and VdpDevice life cycle management.
A stub flags parameter is added for future extension. For instance, it
could be used to ignore codec level capabilities (if someone feels
dangerous).

This is necessary to recreate the decoder with the correct parameters,
as not all codecs invoke get_format() in this case.

Using the not so new init and uninit callbacks, avcodec can now take
care of creating and destroying the VDPAU decoder instance.
The application is still responsible for creating the VDPAU device
and allocating video surfaces - this is necessary to keep video
surfaces on the GPU all the way to the output. But the application
will no longer needs to care about any codec-specific aspects.

This gets rid of aliasing completely unrelated structs to Picture.
Fixes the remaining compilation warnings in the vdpau code.

The code passed H264Picture* and Picture*, and assumed the
hwaccel_picture_private field was in the same place in both
structs. Somehow this happened to work in Libav, but broke in
FFmpeg (and probably subtly breaks in Libav too).

The bitstream buffers are now private and freed by libavcodec. For
backward compatibility, the hold bitstream buffer pointer is left NULL
(applications were supposed to av_freep() it).

Most of the changes are just trivial are just trivial replacements of
fields from MpegEncContext with equivalent fields in H264Context.
Everything in h264* other than h264.c are those trivial changes.
The nontrivial parts are:
1) extracting a simplified version of the frame management code from
mpegvideo.c. We don't need last/next_picture anymore, since h264 uses
its own more complex system already and those were set only to appease
the mpegvideo parts.
2) some tables that need to be allocated/freed in appropriate places.
3) hwaccels -- mostly trivial replacements.
for dxva, the draw_horiz_band() call is moved from
ff_dxva2_common_end_frame() to per-codec end_frame() callbacks,
because it's now different for h264 and MpegEncContext-based
decoders.
4) svq3 -- it does not use h264 complex reference system, so I just
added some very simplistic frame management instead and dropped the
use of ff_h264_frame_start(). Because of this I also had to move some
initialization code to svq3.

This reverts commit da22ba7df4 since it
broke slice threading. Slice threading just duplicates MpegEncContext
so every value used during mpeg_decode_slice has to be in it.
A second patch will fix the illusion that Mpeg1Context is available
in mpeg_decode_slice.

Fixes mmco01.264

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_".
