This commit adds configuration options to libvpxenc.c that can be used to
enable VP8 temporal scalability. It also adds a way to programmatically set the
per-frame encoding flags which can be used to control usage and updates of
reference frames while encoding with temporal scalability enabled.

The libvpx doxy says that a value of 0 for the g_threads field is
equivalent to a value of 1, whereas for avctx->thread_count it means
the maximum amount of threads possible for the host system.
Use av_cpu_count() to get the correct thread count when auto threads
is requested.

Explicitly identify decoder/encoder wrappers with a common name. This
saves API users from guessing by the name suffix. For example, they
don't have to guess that "h264_qsv" is the h264 QSV implementation, and
instead they can just check the AVCodec .codec and .wrapper_name fields.
Explicitly mark AVCodec entries that are hardware decoders or most
likely hardware decoders with new AV_CODEC_CAPs. The purpose is allowing
API users listing hardware decoders in a more generic way. The proposed
AVCodecHWConfig does not provide this information fully, because it's
concerned with decoder configuration, not information about the fact
whether the hardware is used or not.
AV_CODEC_CAP_HYBRID exists specifically for QSV, which can have software
implementations in case the hardware is not capable.

Corpus VBR mode is a variant of standard VBR where the complexity
distribution midpoint is passed in rather than calculated for a specific
clip or chunk.
The valid range is [0, 10000]. 0 (default) uses standard VBR.

This option is only used by mpegvideoenc, x264, xavs, and vpx.
It is a very codec-specific option, so deprecate the global variant.

Add an allowed value to the private options for frame_skip_cmp which
seems to have been forgotten, but perfectly working.
The libvpx frame dropping feature uses one of such option
(frame_skip_threshold) without the other three. For this reason rename
the option to something more consistent with the other libvpx variables.

This parameter can be used to inform the allocation code about how much
downsizing might occur, and can be used to optimize how to allocate the
packet

The rationale is that coded_frame was only used to communicate key_frame,
pict_type and quality to the caller, as well as a few other random fields,
in a non predictable, let alone consistent way.
There was agreement that there was no use case for coded_frame, as it is
a full-sized AVFrame container used for just 2-3 int-sized properties,
which shouldn't even belong into the AVCodecContext in the first place.
The appropriate AVPacket flag can be used instead of key_frame, while
quality is exported with the new AVPacketSideData quality factor.
There is no replacement for the other fields as they were unreliable,
mishandled or just not used at all.

Allocating coded_frame is what most encoders do anyway, so it makes
sense to always allocate and free it in a single place. Moreover a lot
of encoders freed the frame with av_freep() instead of the correct API
av_frame_free().
This bring uniformity to encoder behaviour and prevents applications
from erroneusly accessing this field when not allocated. Additionally
this helps isolating encoders that export information with coded_frame,
and heavily simplifies its deprecation.
