This commit changes h265_metadata to (a) use ff_bsf_get_packet_ref
instead of ff_bsf_get_packet (thereby avoiding one malloc and free per
filtered packet) and (b) to use only one packet structure at all,
thereby avoiding a call to av_packet_copy_props.
(b) has been made possible by the recent changes to ff_cbs_write_packet.

Currently, a fragment's unit array is constantly reallocated during
splitting of a packet. This commit changes this: One can keep the units
array by distinguishing between the number of allocated and the number
of valid units in the units array.
The more units a packet is split into, the bigger the benefit.
So MPEG-2 benefits the most; for a video coming from an NTSC-DVD
(usually 32 units per frame) the average cost of cbs_insert_unit (for a
single unit) went down from 6717 decicycles to 450 decicycles (based
upon 10 runs with 4194304 runs each); if each packet consists of only
one unit, it went down from 2425 to 448; for a H.264 video where most
packets contain nine units, it went from 4431 to 450.

This makes it easier for users of the CBS API to get alloc/free right -
all subelements use the buffer API so that it's clear how to free them.
It also allows eliding some redundant copies: the packet -> fragment copy
disappears after this change if the input packet is refcounted, and more
codec-specific cases are now possible (but not included in this patch).
This is able to modify some header metadata found in the SPS/VUI,
and can also add/remove AUDs and insert user data in SEI NAL units.

Whether the udu string should be freed depends on whether the SEI it
gets added to was created internally by cbs or externally by the bsf.
The current code frees it twice in the former case.
