Reflects the actual code and silences a gcc warning:
libavcodec/utils.c:2102:36: warning: passing argument 1 of 'av_packet_get_side_data' discards 'const' qualifier from pointer target type [-Wdiscarded-qualifiers]
Make it clear that there is no timing-dependent behavior. In particular,
there is no state in which both input and output are denied, and where
you have to wait for a while yourself to make progress (apparently some
hardware decoders like to do this).
Avoid wording that makes references to time. It shouldn't be mistaken
for some kind of asynchronous API (like POSIX read() can return EAGAIN
if there is no new input yet). It's a state machine, so try to use
appropriate terms.

Merges Libav commit 8a60bba0ae.
Allow all struct fields to be accessed directly, as long as they're
public.
Before this change, many fields were "public", but could be accessed via
AVOption only. This meant they were effectively not public, but were
present for documentation purposes, which was incredibly confusing at
best.
This decoder can decode all existing SpeedHQ formats (SHQ0–5, 7, and 9),
including correct decoding of the alpha channel.
1080p is decoded in 142 fps on one core of my i7-4600U (2.1 GHz Haswell),
about evenly split between bitstream reader and IDCT. There is currently
no attempt at slice or frame threading, even though the format trivially
supports both.
NewTek very helpfully provided a full set of SHQ samples, as well as
source code for an SHQ2 encoder (not included) and assistance with
understanding some details of the format.
Decode the Image Data Section (which contains merged pictures).
Support RGB/A and Grayscale/A in 8bits and 16 bits per channel.
Support uncompress and rle decompression in Image Data Section.

RFC: should we add support so that the C field names always work as av option names/keys ?

We cannot deprecate it until the new parser API is in place, because of
the way libavformat works. But the majority of the users can already
simply replace it with avcodec_free_context(), which will simplify the
transition once it is finally deprecated.
This function is supposed to "reset" a codec context to a clean state so
that it can be opened again. The only reason it exists is to allow using
AVStream.codec as a decoding context (after it was already
opened/used/closed by avformat_find_stream_info()). Since that behaviour
is now deprecated, there is no reason for this function to exist
anymore.
Since AVCodecContext contains a lot of complex state, copying a codec
context is not a well-defined operation. The purpose for which it is
typically used (which is well-defined) is copying the stream parameters
from one codec context to another. That is now possible with through the
AVCodecParameters API. Therefore, there is no reason for
avcodec_copy_context() to exist.
