Until now, the decoding API was restricted to outputting 0 or 1 frames
per input packet. It also enforces a somewhat rigid dataflow in general.
This new API seeks to relax these restrictions by decoupling input and
output. Instead of doing a single call on each decode step, which may
consume the packet and may produce output, the new API requires the user
to send input first, and then ask for output.
For now, there are no codecs supporting this API. The API can work with
codecs using the old API, and most code added here is to make them
interoperate. The reverse is not possible, although for audio it might.

Check if the size is written the first 4 bytes and read the next 4
as fourcc candidate, fallback checking the initial for 4 bytes.
"The CodecPrivate contains all additional data that is stored in the
'stsd' (sample description) atom in the QuickTime file after the
mandatory video descriptor structure (starting with the size and FourCC
fields)"

Samples produced by Omneon (Harmonic) store external references with
paths ending with 0s. Such movs cannot be loaded properly since every
0 is converted to '/', to keep the same parsing code for dref type 2
and type 18: this makes the external reference point to a non-existing
direactory, rather than to the actual referenced file.
Add a brief trimming loop that drops all ending 0s before trying to
parse the external reference path.

Store the file duration in the same timebase it arrives (i.e.
milliseconds) and only convert it to the file duration units (100ns)
when it's actually written, thus simplifying some calculations. Also,
store the duration as unsigned, since it cannot be negative.

Bug-ID: CVE-2016-2326
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.
Instead of a linked list constructed at av_register_all(), store them
in a constant array of pointers.
Since no registration is necessary now, this removes some global state
from lavf. This will also allow the urlprotocol layer caller to limit
the available protocols in a simple and flexible way in the following
commits.
Some muxer might or might not fit incomplete mp3 frames in
their packets.

Some (de)muxers open additional files beyond the main IO context.
Currently, they call avio_open() directly, which prevents the caller
from using custom IO for such streams.
This commit adds callbacks to AVFormatContext that default to
avio_open2()/avio_close(), but can be overridden by the caller. All
muxers and demuxers using AVIO are switched to using those callbacks
instead of calling avio_open()/avio_close() directly.
(de)muxers that use the URLProtocol layer directly instead of AVIO
remain unconverted for now. This should be fixed in later commits.
This feature is mostly only used by NLE software, and is
both of dubious value being enabled by default, and a
possible security risk.

For http, this avoids spurious warnings about failed requests (e.g.
HTTP error 416 Requested Range Not Satisfiable), if the last packet
is truncated and the size read is bogus.

When loading a truncated flv file, it would previously try to do a seek to
the end of every packet read. For some input protocols (such as http), such
repeated seek attempts are cripple the reading performance.
