This compared to the other suggestions is cleaner and easier to understand
keeping the condition in the if() simple.
This affects alot of fate tests.

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.
Some codecs use the codec_tag to signal specific information and
picking the first one would lead to a broken file.

libc's qsort comparator has a const qualifier on both arguments. This
adds a missing const qualifier to exactly match the comparator API.
Existing usages of av_tree_find, av_tree_insert are appropriately
modified: type signature changes of the comparators, and removal of
unnecessary void * casts of function pointers.

This side data does not serve or improve decoding the data, it thus
would semantically be metadata and not side data.

Add the low overhead pipe mode and the extended broadcast mode.
Export the options as 'syncponts' since it impacts only that.

This fixes an assertion failure and regression and restores previous behaviour
Fixes Ticket3197
An alternative would be to fail hard in this case and refuse to mux such data.
