This is possible now that the next-API is gone.

Now "-c copy" works.
Update FATE files.
Demuxer only split file into packets, no data is trimmed.
Encoder & muxer currently expect completely another format
where muxer writes stuff like disposal method which should
be really encoder job.
With this patch muxer only modifies delay between two packets.
Codec copy need to have same behavior between demuxer and
muxer to work correctly.
Fixes#6640.
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.
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).

To define accurately the delay between two frames, it is necessary to
have both available. Before this commit, the first frame had a delay of
0; while in practice the problem is not visible in most situation, it is
problematic with low frame rate and large scene change.
This commit notably fixes output generated with commands such as:
ffmpeg -i big_buck_bunny_1080p_h264.mov
-vf "select='gt(scene,0.4)',scale=320:-1,setpts=N/TB"
-frames:v 5 -y out.gif
Also, to avoid odd loop delays, the N-1 delay is duplicated for the last
frame.
The encoder now doesn't produce any extra graphic control extension
block anymore. Only the image is encoded, and the muxer writing
its own GCE containing notably the timing information now includes the
optional palette transmitted through packet side data.
This commit avoid setting clashes between the two GCE, and reduce the
size of the generated file with pal8 output.
Extension description comments are now placed along the avio calls, the
always defined macro removed, and the always true loop_count check as
well (loop option is bound to 0-65535).
This commit removes the badly duplicated code between the encoder and
the muxer. That may sound surprising, but the encoder is now responsible
from the encoding of the picture when muxing to a .gif file. It also
does not require anymore a manual user intervention such as a -pix_fmt
rgb24 to work properly. To summarize, output gif are now easier to
generate, code is saner and simpler, and files are smaller (thanks to
the lzw encoding which was unused so far with the default .gif output).
We can certainly make things even better, but this is the first step.
FATE is updated because of the output being produced by the encoder and
not the muxer (no lzw in the muxer), and in the seek test only the size
mismatches.
Fixes Ticket #2262
This is consistent with stdio and is what we want to do in all cases.
Fixes a bug in the voc muxer which didn't flush in write_trailer()
previously. This is the cause of the change in the test results.
