This commit introduces a new AVPacket side data type:
AV_PKT_DATA_STRINGS_METADATA. Its main goal is to provide a way to
transmit the metadata from the AVFilterBufferRef up to the AVFrame. This
is at the moment "only" useful for lavfi input from libavdevice:
lavd/lavfi only outputs packets, and the metadata from the buffer ref
kept in its context needs to be transmitted from the packet to the frame
by the decoders. The buffer ref can be destroyed at any time (along with
the metadata), and a duplication of the AVPacket needs to duplicate the
metadata as well, so the choice of using the side data to store them was
selected.
Making sure lavd/lavfi raises the metadata is useful to allow tools like
ffprobe to access the filters metadata (it is at the moment the only
way); ffprobe will now automatically show the AVFrame metadata in any
customizable output format for users. API users will also be able to
access the AVFrame->metadata pointer the same way ffprobe does
(av_frame_get_metadata).
All the changes are done in this single commit to avoid some memory
leaks: for instances, the changes in lavfi/avcodec.c are meant to
duplicate the metadata from the buffer ref into the AVFrame. Unless we
have an internal way of freeing the AVFrame->metadata automatically, it
will leak in most of the user apps. To fix this problem, we introduce
AVCodecContext->metadata and link avctx->metadata to the current
frame->metadata and free it at each decode frame call (and in the codec
closing callback for the last one). But doing this also means to update
the way the tiff decoder already handles the AVFrame->metadata (it's the
only one decoder with frame metadata at the moment), by making sure it
is not trying to free a pointer already freed by the lavc internals.
The lavfi/avcodec.c buffer ref code is based on an old Thomas Kühnel
work, the rest of the code belongs to the commit author.

Fix warning when compiling boxblur.
While this is technically a major API break, practically there will be no
one using that function since the filtering API is mostly private, so
that function alone is not usable.
This allows dynamic reconfiguration of the filter.
The callback uses some code that was in the init function. Hence this code
has been moved in its own function.

This filter is inspired upon libmpcodecs/vf_framestep.c, by Daniele
Forghieri.
Only-keyframe output is not supported, since that feature can be achieved
through the more versatile select filter.

These filters are designed for storing and transmitting video sequences
with alpha using higher-efficiency codecs such as x264 which don't
natively support an alpha channel. 'alphaextract' takes an input stream
with an alpha channel and returns a video containing just the alpha
component as a grayscale value; 'alphamerge' takes an RGB or YUV stream
and adds an alpha channel recovered from a second grayscale stream.

This will be used by filters which require an opaque field to be passed
in input. Should be required only for filters which imply a programmatic
use.
This is possibly a temporary solution, to be removed when we'll have a
clearer and better agreememnt of how/if to pass binary data for
initializing a filter.

The vsrc_buffer.h is not installed since commit 0b3b958135, so there is
no point into keeping it around.
The buffersrc.h API, which is more powerful, should be used instead.
