It allows attaching other external, opaque data to the frame and passing it
through the reordering process, for cases when the caller wants other data
than just the plain packet pts. There is no way to cleanly achieve this
without the field.
The rationale is that you have a packed format in form
<greyscale sample> <alpha sample> <greyscale sample> <alpha sample>
and shortening greyscale to 'G' might make one thing about Greenscale instead.
An alias pixel format and color space name are provided for compatibility.
This provides a public sustainable API/ABI for DCT functions.
Only externally used dct functions are included.
The structure is extensible without ABI issues compared to the
existing dct contexts.

The AVStream.parser field is considered private and its location cannot be
preserved while preserving also ABI compatibility to libav, as libav added fields
before it.
Some tools like ffmpeg.c access this field though

Previously, AVStream.codec.time_base was used for that purpose, which
was quite confusing for the callers. This change also opens the path for
removing AVStream.codec.
The change in the lavf-mkv test is due to the native timebase (1/1000)
being used instead of the default one (1/90000), so the packets are now
sent to the crc muxer in the same order in which they are demuxed
(previously some of them got reordered because of inexact timestamp
conversion).
Some encoders (e.g. flac) need to send side data when there is no more
data to be output. This enables them to output a packet with no data in
it, only side data.
Add AV_PKT_DATA_DISPLAYMATRIX and AV_FRAME_DATA_DISPLAYMATRIX as stream and
frame side data (respectively) to describe a display transformation matrix
for linear transformation operations on the decoded video.
Add functions to easily extract a rotation angle from a matrix and
conversely to setup a matrix for a given rotation angle.

Right now, the caller has to manually manage some allocated
AVCodecContext fields, like extradata or subtitle_header. This is
fragile and prone to leaks, especially if we want to add more such
fields in the future.
The only reason for this behaviour is so that the AVStream codec context
can be reused for decoding. Such reuse is discouraged anyway, so this
commit is the first step to deprecating it.
These functions are using the POSIX clock_gettime() function with the
CLOCK_MONOTONIC clock id. If these are not present on the targeted
platform, the new functions will fallback on using the original realtime functions
av_gettime() and av_usleep().
Monotonic support can be added on other platforms with their
equivalent native system API eventually if possible.
Whenever time is requested to measure relative time, the monotonic clock,
when available, is superior to the system realtime clock because it is
not affected by discontinuous jumps in the system time
In a future step, offering the flexibility to let the user choose between
rt and monotonic clock for avdevices packets will be investigated.
It is very easy to experience the issues that this patch attempt to address
by rewinding back in the past the system time while ffmpeg is running.
this is breaking the ffmpeg report printing (ffmepg.c:print_report()) and
the the rate emulator functionality (-re) without the patch.

Use it instead of checking CODEC_FLAG_BITEXACT in the first stream's
codec context.
Using codec options inside lavf is fragile and can easily break when the
muxing codec context is not the encoding context.
