The rationale is that coded_frame was only used to communicate key_frame,
pict_type and quality to the caller, as well as a few other random fields,
in a non predictable, let alone consistent way.
There was agreement that there was no use case for coded_frame, as it is
a full-sized AVFrame container used for just 2-3 int-sized properties,
which shouldn't even belong into the AVCodecContext in the first place.
The appropriate AVPacket flag can be used instead of key_frame, while
quality is exported with the new AVPacketSideData quality factor.
There is no replacement for the other fields as they were unreliable,
mishandled or just not used at all.

Allocating coded_frame is what most encoders do anyway, so it makes
sense to always allocate and free it in a single place. Moreover a lot
of encoders freed the frame with av_freep() instead of the correct API
av_frame_free().
This bring uniformity to encoder behaviour and prevents applications
from erroneusly accessing this field when not allocated. Additionally
this helps isolating encoders that export information with coded_frame,
and heavily simplifies its deprecation.

The official Ut Video decoder only threads with slices, thus until
now any files encoded by the libavcodec encoder have only been
decodable with a single thread. The default slice count is now
set to subsampled_height / 120.
Also sets slices to 1 for the Ut Video encoder tests to keep them
green.

With cli usage the decoder might have not set the colorspace during
encoder init, manual colorspace override might be needed in such
cases.

Also, align the mangled RGB planes, which is required for the
SIMD versions of dsputils' median predict.
