Previously, the default palette would always be used.
Now, we can accept a custom palette, just like dvdsubdec does.

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.

The issue affects dvdsub subtitles (a.k.a. VOBSUB).
Some players -- in particular hardware players -- cut off
the lowest row of pixels if the number of rows in the subtitle
is odd.
The patch below implements a work-around for that. If the
number of rows is odd, it is simply rounded up to an even
number, adding an invisible (i.e. fully transparent) row.
The work-around can be enabled or disabled with a new
option -even_rows_fix. The default is disabled, so there
is no change of behaviour for users who don't care about it.
The overhead for the fix is low, and in many cases even zero:
For subtitles with an odd number of rows (i.e. in 50% of
cases on average), the size increases by two bytes because
a fully transparent row is encoded as 0x00 0x00. However,
in the VOBSUB standard, all data packets are padded to 2KB
anyway, so in most cases the additional bytes just use some
part of the padding, so there is no overhead. Only in the
rare case that the 2KB boundary is hit (0.1% chance), a full
2KB block is added.

Consider the color space as an hypercone with apex alpha=0
and base alpha=1 instead of an hypercube.
Make the encoder consider very transparent colors more similar
even if the hue is very different.
This corresponds roughly to using the alpha as a weight for the
color difference.
Only 4 bits of alpha are used, because this is what dvdsub uses,
and it avoids overflows.
Fix trac ticket #2005.
This commit also makes sure the extradata and subtitle_header are NUL
terminated, without taking into account the trailing '\0' in account in
the size.
At the same time, it should fix 'warning: dereferencing type-punned
pointer will break strict-aliasing rules' warning for compilers who
don't consider uint8_t** and char** compatibles.
DVD subtitles packets can only encode a single rectangle:
if there are several, copy them into a big transparent one.
DVD subtitles rely on an external 16-colors palette:
use a reasonable default one, stored in the private context,
and encode it into the extradata, as specified by Matroska.
TODO: allow to change the palette with an option.
Each packet can use four colors out of the global palette.
The old logic was to map transparent colors to the color 0
and all other colors to 3, 2, 1, cyclically in descending
frequency order, completely disregarding the original color.
Select the "best" four colors from the global palette, according
to heuristics based on frequency, opacity and brightness, and
arrange them in standard DVD order: background, foreground,
outline, other.
TODO: select the alpha value more finely; see if CHG_COLCON can
allow more than 4 colors per packet.

With these changes, dvdsubenc can be used to transcode DVB subtitles
and get a very decent result.
Also break some long lines, remove codec function placeholder comments
and add spaces in sample/pixel format lists.

None of these symbols should be accessed directly, so declare them as
hidden.
