The header was never installed and the function is only used in libavformat

Currently, AVStream contains an embedded AVCodecContext instance, which
is used by demuxers to export stream parameters to the caller and by
muxers to receive stream parameters from the caller. It is also used
internally as the codec context that is passed to parsers.
In addition, it is also widely used by the callers as the decoding (when
demuxer) or encoding (when muxing) context, though this has been
officially discouraged since Libav 11.
There are multiple important problems with this approach:
- the fields in AVCodecContext are in general one of
* stream parameters
* codec options
* codec state
However, it's not clear which ones are which. It is consequently
unclear which fields are a demuxer allowed to set or a muxer allowed to
read. This leads to erratic behaviour depending on whether decoding or
encoding is being performed or not (and whether it uses the AVStream
embedded codec context).
- various synchronization issues arising from the fact that the same
context is used by several different APIs (muxers/demuxers,
parsers, bitstream filters and encoders/decoders) simultaneously, with
there being no clear rules for who can modify what and the different
processes being typically delayed with respect to each other.
- avformat_find_stream_info() making it necessary to support opening
and closing a single codec context multiple times, thus
complicating the semantics of freeing various allocated objects in the
codec context.
Those problems are resolved by replacing the AVStream embedded codec
context with a newly added AVCodecParameters instance, which stores only
the stream parameters exported by the demuxers or read by the muxers.
This can be made more efficient, but first and the main goal of this change is to
store it at all

Allow writing an empty channel mask into the wave format header. Useful
if the input file contains an unknown channel layout.

Fixes the duration field of the OpenDML master index "indx" chunk to
contain the number of samples instead of the number of packets for
(linear/PCM) audio streams.
This matches the OpenDML V1.02 standard text which states that the
duration field shall contain "time span in stream ticks".

Previously, AVStream.codec.time_base was used for that purpose, which
was quite confusing for the callers. This change also opens the path for
removing AVStream.codec.
The change in the lavf-mkv test is due to the native timebase (1/1000)
being used instead of the default one (1/90000), so the packets are now
sent to the crc muxer in the same order in which they are demuxed
(previously some of them got reordered because of inexact timestamp
conversion).
Partially undoes commit 2c4e08d89327595f7f4be57dda4b3775e1198d5e:
riff: always generate a proper WAVEFORMATEX structure in
ff_put_wav_header
A new flag, FF_PUT_WAV_HEADER_FORCE_WAVEFORMATEX, is added to force the
use of WAVEFORMATEX rather than PCMWAVEFORMAT even for PCM codecs.
This flag is used in the Matroska muxer (the cause of the original
change) and in the ASF muxer, because the specifications for
these formats indicate explicitly that WAVEFORMATEX should be used.
Muxers for other formats will return to the original behavior of writing
PCMWAVEFORMAT when writing a header for raw PCM.
In particular, this causes raw PCM in WAV to generate the canonical
44-byte header expected by some tools.

The muxer will write at least the number of bytes requested and possibly
up to 3 bytes more. This is because the muxer writes 32-bit integers
and the format requires 4-byte alignment anyway.

When av_reallocp fails, the associated variables that keep track of
the number of elements in the array (and in some cases, the
separate number of allocated elements) need to be reset.
Not all of these might technically be needed, but it's better to
reset them if in doubt, to make sure variables don't end up
conflicting.

Since 596e5d4783, this is not necessary anymore. It also allows to
actually disable the flushing, improving write performance (but
possibly giving worse latency in real-time streaming).
