This way, if the AVCodecContext is allocated for a specific codec, the
caller doesn't need to store this codec separately and then pass it
again to avcodec_open2().
It also allows to set codec private options using av_opt_set_* before
opening the codec.
It allows to check whether an AVCodecContext is open in a documented
way. Right now the undocumented way this check is done in lavf/lavc is
by checking whether AVCodecContext.codec is NULL. However it's desirable
to be able to set AVCodecContext.codec before avcodec_open2().
If no data was seen for a stream decoder are returning 0 when fed with
empty packets for flushing. We can stop flushing when the decoder does
not return delayed delayed frames anymore. Changes try_decode_frame()
return value to got_picture or negative error.

The H.264 decoder needs SPS and PPS for initialization during
multi-threaded decoding. When probed single-threaded SPS and PPS are
copied to extradata and are available for proper initialization of
the decoder before the first frame is decoded.
It sets the supplied AVFormatContext pointer to NULL after freeing it,
which is safer and its name is consistent with other lavf functions.
Also deprecate av_close_input_file().
Adding the thread count in frame level multithreading to has_b_frames
as an additional delay causes more problems than it solves.
For example inconsistent behaviour during timestamp calculation in
libavformat.
Thread count and frame level multithreading are both set by the user.
If the additional delay caused by frame level multithreading needs
to be considered in the calling code it has all information to take
it into account.
Should it become necessary to calculate a maximum delay inside
libavcodec it should be exported as its own field and not reusing
an existing field.

This makes the function accept the format of creation_time
as output by demuxers (e.g. the mov demuxer), making the
creation timestamp stay intact if transcoding.

This function is used in muxers for parsing the 'creation_time'
metadata key, for converting it to a time value.
This makes it match the behaviour of the exported 'creation_time'
metadata from demuxers, where it is in UTC, too.

Converting to double before the multiplication rather than after
avoids an integer overflow in some cases.

This is to make developers aware of the fact that they will
start using the new init function at some point.

All current usages of it are incompatible with localization.
For example strcasecmp("i", "I") != 0 is possible, but would
break many of the places where it is used.
Instead use our own implementations that always treat the data
as ASCII.

This fixes false positives of has_codec_delay_been_guessed() for
streams where not every input picture generates an output picture,
such as interlaced H264.
