Thiss commit removes the experimental flag from the native AAC Encoder
and thus makes it the default.
After a lot of work, done by myself and Claudio Freire, the quality of
this encoder rivals and surpasses libfdk_aac in some situations. The
encoder had instability issues earlier which prevented it from having
its experimental flag removed, however the last commits done by Claudio
removed the last known source of instability and solved a lot of
problems which were previously observed. The issues were caused by the
various coding tools interfering with the scalefactor indices. Thus,
with these problems solved, it should now be possible to declare this
encoder as the default and recommend that the users should use it
instead of others provided by external libraries, as it is both faster
and has a subjectively higher quality with selected tracks.
The encoder has still yet to be fine tuned for every possible audio file
type like music or voice, so it is hoped that with the experimental flag
removed the users should be able to provide feedback and make the
encoder better than the alternatives for every type of audio and at
every bitrate.

Since the next commit removes the experimental flag from the encoder
it's better to update the documentation which has been around in its
current form for as long as the encoder itself.

ANMR has some interesting things coming up but is currently not in a
shape fit for non-experimental usage. Same with "FAST".

This coder produces a much lower quality audio than the rest, is much
slower and is unstable. Hasn't been updated for a very long time as
well, hence it is more appropriate to remove it since it also depends on
a big burden of a code (the encode_window_bands_info function which is
just as old, just as unstable and bad and in no way modifiable or
fixable).

QuickTime metadata can come after trak data. Add indicator for which trak is being parsed (-1 if none) so that global metadata after the trak can be parsed.

Using -ss as an input option shifts timestamps down by the seek, so it
doesn't have to be added to the recording time when checking whether to
stop.

If minq is negative, the range of sf_idx can be larger than
SCALE_MAX_DIFF allows, causing assertion failures later in
encode_scale_factors.

Having a configure option with the same name as a MIPS ISA is confusing,
so better to remove it. This option was being used to add some
optimizations to a specific core (p5600). We will add the optimizations
just when the p5600 core has been detected, in a later patch.

If size is zero, avio_get_str fails, leaving the buffer uninitialized.
This causes invalid reads in av_set_options_string.

Including these headers is not needed and breaks building on Windows as it
tries to activate the full compat tools, which are not needed for host
tools.
