This solves the problem discussed in https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2015-September/179238.html
by allowing AVCodec::write_header to be delayed until after packets have been
run through required bitstream filters in order to generate global extradata.
It also provides a mechanism by which a muxer can add a bitstream filter to a
stream automatically, rather than prompting the user to do so.
Applications are not supposed to mess with links,
they should close the sinks.
Furthermore, this function does not distinguish what end
of the link caused the close and does not have a timestamp.
This function returns the encoded data of a frame, one slice at a time
directly when that slice is encoded, instead of waiting for the full
frame to be done. However this field has a debatable usefulness, since
it looks like it is just a convoluted way to get data at lowest
possible latency, or a somewhat hacky way to store h263 in RFC-2190
rtp encapsulation.
Moreover when multi-threading is enabled (which is by default) the order
of returned slices is not deterministic at all, making the use of this
function not reliable at all (or at the very least, more complicated
than it should be).
So, for the reasons stated above, and being used by only a single encoder
family (mpegvideo), this field is deemed unnecessary, overcomplicated,
and not really belonging to libavcodec. Libavformat features a complete
implementation of RFC-2190, for any other case.

This side data type is meant to be added to AVStream side data.
A fallback track indicates an alternate track to use when the
current track can not be decoded for some reason. e.g. no
decoder available for codec.

Use the new fields directly instead of the ones from AVPicture.
This removes a layer of indirection which serves no pratical purpose
whatsoever, and will help in removing AVPicture structure completely
later.
Every subtitle encoder/decoder seamlessly points to the new arrays,
so it is possible to deprecate AVSubtitleRect.pict.

Note that convergence_duration had another meaning, one which was in
practice never used. The only real use for it was a 64 bit replacement
for the duration field. It's better just to make duration 64 bits, and
to get rid of it.

There is no practical benefit in having this structure elements
bit packed given the size of the structure and its usage.
Change types from uint16_t (packed) to plain int in order to simplify
modifying the structure and accessing its fields.

Move libavcodec managed objects from the public struct vaapi_context
to a new privately owned FFVAContext. This is done so that to clean up
and streamline the public structure, but also to prepare for new codec
support, thus requiring new internal data to be added in there.
The AVCodecContext.hwaccel_context, that holds the public vaapi_context,
shall no longer be accessed from within vaapi_*.c codec support files.

Deprecate older VA pixel formats (MOCO, IDCT) as it is now very unlikely
to ever be useful in the future. Only keep plain AV_PIX_FMT_VAAPI format
that is aliased to the older VLD variant.
This is an API change.

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

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.

This returns something like "v12_dev0-1332-g333a27c". This is much more
useful than the individual library versions, of which there are too
many, and which are very hard to map back to releases or git commits.
