Explicitly identify decoder/encoder wrappers with a common name. This
saves API users from guessing by the name suffix. For example, they
don't have to guess that "h264_qsv" is the h264 QSV implementation, and
instead they can just check the AVCodec .codec and .wrapper_name fields.
Explicitly mark AVCodec entries that are hardware decoders or most
likely hardware decoders with new AV_CODEC_CAPs. The purpose is allowing
API users listing hardware decoders in a more generic way. The proposed
AVCodecHWConfig does not provide this information fully, because it's
concerned with decoder configuration, not information about the fact
whether the hardware is used or not.
AV_CODEC_CAP_HYBRID exists specifically for QSV, which can have software
implementations in case the hardware is not capable.

Almost all the places from which this function is called already check
the header manually and in the two that don't (the mp3 muxer) the check
should not cause any problems.
This parameter can be used to inform the allocation code about how much
downsizing might occur, and can be used to optimize how to allocate the
packet

Currently, the amount of padding inserted at the beginning by some audio
encoders, is exported through AVCodecContext.delay. However
- the term 'delay' is heavily overloaded and can have multiple different
meanings even in the case of audio encoding.
- this field has entirely different meanings, depending on whether the
codec context is used for encoding or decoding (and has yet another
different meaning for video), preventing generic handling of the codec
context.
Therefore, add a new field -- AVCodecContext.initial_padding. It could
conceivably be used for decoding as well at a later point.
As indicated in the function documentation, the header MUST be
checked prior to calling it because no consistency check is done
there.

this prevents the creation of a packet even though no single sample has ever
been input, which some confusion in the timestamp generation

The LAME API documentation for the required buffer size refers to the size for
a single encode call. However, we store multiple frames in the same output
buffer but only read 1 frame at a time out of it. As a result, the buffer size
given in lame_encode_buffer() is actually smaller than what it should be.
Since we do not know how many frames it will end up buffering, it is best to
just reallocate if needed.
