Add function avfilter_graph_parse_ptr() and favor it in place of
avfilter_graph_parse(), which will be restored with the old/Libav
signature at the next bump.
If HAVE_INCOMPATIBLE_LIBAV_API is enabled it will use the
Libav-compatible signature for avfilter_graph_parse().
At the next major bump the current implementation of
avfilter_graph_parse() should be dropped in favor of the Libav/old
implementation.
Should address trac ticket #2672.
With the introduction of AVFilterContext->is_disabled, we can simplify
the custom passthrough mode in filters.
This commit is technically a small compat break, but the timeline was
introduced very recently.

The deprecated aconvert filter is disabled, if it still has users
it should be updated

Since this function adds a standalone filter to a filter graph and we do
not support creating such filters, there is no reason for this function
to exist.
Since we do not support "standalone" filters not attached to an
AVFilterGraph, we should not have a public function to create such
filters. In addition that function is horribly named, the action it does
cannot be possibly described as "opening" a filter.
Some filters need several input frames before producing output.
For these filter, it becomes simpler to return 0 in
request_frame() and let the framework call it again until
output has been produced.
This was supposed to be removed in 565e4993, but it was delayed due to
the port of the remaining filters. These buffer ref pointers are not
used anymore, thus dropped.
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.
