This option is extremely codec specific and only a few codecs employ it.
Move it to codec private options instead: mpegenc family supports only 3
values, xavs and x264 use 5, and xvid has a different metric entirely.

This parameter can be used to inform the allocation code about how much
downsizing might occur, and can be used to optimize how to allocate the
packet

The stats are a superset of the quality factor, also allowing the picture type and encoder "PSNR" stats to be exported
This also replaces the native by fixed little endian order for the affected side data
AV_PKT_DATA_QUALITY_FACTOR is left as a synonym of AV_PKT_DATA_QUALITY_STATS

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.

This is necessary to preserve the quality information currently exported
with coded_frame. Add the new side data to every encoder that needs it,
and use it in avconv.

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.

Regular autovariance is no longer "experimental", and a version of it with
bias towards dark scenes is now in mainline x264.

Implementation based on x264

After adding colorspace support to xine-lib, I insist in proper
settings within media files at least when they do not follow
that implicit SD/HD routine.
libx264 has a few data exports which require X264_API_IMPORTS
to be defined if we link to libx264 dynamically on Windows.
In a similar fashion to how we handle our compat snprintf
implementation, if we define it all the time, the compiler
will first try and link to __imp_x264_symbol_name, and failing
that, as in the case of a static libx264, will attempt to link
to the non-prefixed symbol, which has already been pulled in by
other x264 functions' object files.
