The option tables of the various fftools (in particular ffprobe) are
arrays of OptionDef; said type contains a union of a pointer to void and
a function pointer of type int (*)(void *, const char *, const char *)
as well as a size_t. Some entries (namely the common entry for writing a
report as well as several more of ffprobe's entries) used the pointer to
void to store a pointer to functions of type int (*)(const char *) or
type int (*)(const char *, const char *); nevertheless, when the functions
are actually called in write_option (in cmdutils.c), it is done via a
pointer of the first type.
There are two things wrong here:
1. Pointer to void can be converted to any pointer to incomplete or
object type and back; but they are nevertheless not completely generic
pointers: There is no provision in the C standard that guarantees their
convertibility with function pointers. C90 lacks a generic function
pointer, C99 made every function pointer a generic function pointer and
still disallows the convertibility with void *.
2. The signature of the called function differs from the signature
of the pointed-to type. This is undefined behaviour in C99 (given that
C90 lacks a way to convert function pointers at all, it doesn't say
anything about such a situation). It only works because none of the
functions this patch is about make any use of their parameters at all.
Therefore this commit changes the type of the relevant functions
to match the type used for the call and uses the union's function
pointer to store it. This is legal even in C90.

av_guess_sample_aspect_ratio() will return undefined or missing
value as {0,1}. This fixes show_stream() to check numerator to
display 'N/A' when appropriate. show_frame() does this already
correctly.

PSEUDOPAL pixel formats are not paletted, but carried a palette with the
intention of allowing code to treat unpaletted formats as paletted. The
palette simply mapped the byte values to the resulting RGB values,
making it some sort of LUT for RGB conversion.
It was used for 1 byte formats only: RGB4_BYTE, BGR4_BYTE, RGB8, BGR8,
GRAY8. The first 4 are awfully obscure, used only by some ancient bitmap
formats. The last one, GRAY8, is more common, but its treatment is
grossly incorrect. It considers full range GRAY8 only, so GRAY8 coming
from typical Y video planes was not mapped to the correct RGB values.
This cannot be fixed, because AVFrame.color_range can be freely changed
at runtime, and there is nothing to ensure the pseudo palette is
updated.
Also, nothing actually used the PSEUDOPAL palette data, except xwdenc
(trivially changed in the previous commit). All other code had to treat
it as a special case, just to ignore or to propagate palette data.
In conclusion, this was just a very strange old mechnaism that has no
real justification to exist anymore (although it may have been nice and
useful in the past). Now it's an artifact that makes the API harder to
use: API users who allocate their own pixel data have to be aware that
they need to allocate the palette, or FFmpeg will crash on them in
_some_ situations. On top of this, there was no API to allocate the
pseuo palette outside of av_frame_get_buffer().
This patch not only deprecates AV_PIX_FMT_FLAG_PSEUDOPAL, but also makes
the pseudo palette optional. Nothing accesses it anymore, though if it's
set, it's propagated. It's still allocated and initialized for
compatibility with API users that rely on this feature. But new API
users do not need to allocate it. This was an explicit goal of this
patch.
Most changes replace AV_PIX_FMT_FLAG_PSEUDOPAL with FF_PSEUDOPAL. I
first tried #ifdefing all code, but it was a mess. The FF_PSEUDOPAL
macro reduces the mess, and still allows defining FF_API_PSEUDOPAL to 0.
Passes FATE with FF_API_PSEUDOPAL enabled and disabled. In addition,
FATE passes with FF_API_PSEUDOPAL set to 1, but with allocation
functions manually changed to not allocating a palette.
avdevice_register_all() is still required to register devices into
lavf (this is required due to lavd being somewhat of a hack).
