Most users of ffio_init_context() simply want to wrap
a buffer into an AVIOContext; they do not provide
function pointers at all.
Therefore this commit adds shortcuts for these two common
operations. This also allows to accept const data when reading
(i.e. the const is now cast away at a central place in
ffio_init_read_context() instead of at several callers).
This also allows to constify the data in ff_text_init_buf().

Currently AVIOContext's private fields are all over AVIOContext.
This commit moves them into a new structure in avio_internal.h instead.
Said structure contains the public AVIOContext as its first element
in order to avoid having to allocate a separate AVIOContextInternal
which is costly for those use cases where one just wants to access
an already existing buffer via the AVIOContext-API.
For these cases ffio_init_context() can't fail and always returned zero,
which was typically not checked. Therefore it has been made to not
return anything.

It is not uncommon to find code where the caller thinks to know better
what the return value should be than the callee. E.g. something like
"if (av_new_packet(pkt, size) < 0) return AVERROR(ENOMEM);". This commit
changes several instances of this to instead forward the actual error.

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.
The only case where RTP_FLAG_KEY actually is needed is
in RDT, where such a flag needs to be passed via the
rtpdec parse function's flags parameter.

Many of these functions were named foo_free_context, and since
the functions no longer should free the context itself, only
allocated elements within it, the previous naming was slightly
misleading.

This makes it more consistent with depacketizers that don't have any
.free function at all, where the payload context is freed by the
surrounding framework. Always free the context in the surrounding
framework, having the individual depacketizers only free any data
they've specifically allocated themselves.
This is similar to how this works for demuxer/muxers/codecs - a
component shouldn't free the priv_data that the framework has
allocated for it.

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.

In the name of consistency:
get_byte -> avio_r8
get_<type> -> avio_r<type>
get_buffer -> avio_read
get_partial_buffer will be made private later
get_strz is left out becase I want to change it later to return
something useful.

init_put_byte should never be used outside of lavf, since
sizeof(AVIOContext) isn't part of public ABI.
