This adds a new option -hls_flags single_file that creates one .ts file
for HLS and adds byteranges to the .m3u8 file, instead of creating one
.ts file for each segment.
This is helpful at least for storing large number of videos, as the
number of files per video is drastically reduced and copying and storing
those files takes less requests and inodes.
This is based on work by Nicolas Martyanoff, discussed on ffmpeg-devel
in July 2014. That patch seems abandoned by the author, and contained
unrelated changes. This patch tries to add the minimum amount of code to
support the byterange playlists.

Make the segment muxer keep segment_list_size segments instead of
segment_list_size + 1 segments. This patch also changes the
documentation for segment_list_size to reduce possible confusion over
how many segments are kept.
this allows the segment list to
be limited to containing only one segment which used to be impossible
because a segment_list_size of 0 kept all the segments and a
segment_list_size of 1 kept 2 segments.

This patch adds the ability to generate WebM DASH manifest XML using
ffmpeg. A sample command line would be as follows:
ffmpeg \
-f webm_dash_manifest -i video1.webm \
-f webm_dash_manifest -i video2.webm \
-f webm_dash_manifest -i audio1.webm \
-f webm_dash_manifest -i audio2.webm \
-map 0 -map 1 -map 2 -map 3 \
-c copy \
-f webm_dash_manifest \
-adaptation_sets “id=0,streams=0,1 id=1,streams=2,3” \
manifest.xml
It works by exporting necessary fields as metadata tags in matroskadec
and use those values to write the appropriate XML fields as per the WebM
DASH Specification [1]. Some ideas are adopted from webm-tools project
[2].

When the index is not written, several data tables become unneeded,
reducing memory and cpu requirements.

Add the low overhead pipe mode and the extended broadcast mode.
Export the options as 'syncponts' since it impacts only that.

More consistent with codec docs. Also some minor reorganization of sentences
to fit the new document hierarchy.

In particular, reference segment muxer and clarify difference between
segment filename number and playlist sequence number.
Should fix trac ticket #2601.
This option allows to add a prefix to the segment list entry filenames.
Also set by default the list entry filenames to the corresponding
segment basename, consistent with the HLS muxer.
Based on an idea by Steven Liu <lingjiujianke@gmail.com>.
Faststart moves the moov atom to the beginning of the file and rewrites
the rest of the file after muxing is complete.
