RFC: should we add support so that the C field names always work as av option names/keys ?
Signed-off-by: Michael Niedermayer <michael@niedermayer.cc>
This function is supposed to "reset" a codec context to a clean state so
that it can be opened again. The only reason it exists is to allow using
AVStream.codec as a decoding context (after it was already
opened/used/closed by avformat_find_stream_info()). Since that behaviour
is now deprecated, there is no reason for this function to exist
anymore.
Since AVCodecContext contains a lot of complex state, copying a codec
context is not a well-defined operation. The purpose for which it is
typically used (which is well-defined) is copying the stream parameters
from one codec context to another. That is now possible with through the
AVCodecParameters API. Therefore, there is no reason for
avcodec_copy_context() to exist.
Until now, the decoding API was restricted to outputting 0 or 1 frames
per input packet. It also enforces a somewhat rigid dataflow in general.
This new API seeks to relax these restrictions by decoupling input and
output. Instead of doing a single call on each decode step, which may
consume the packet and may produce output, the new API requires the user
to send input first, and then ask for output.
For now, there are no codecs supporting this API. The API can work with
codecs using the old API, and most code added here is to make them
interoperate. The reverse is not possible, although for audio it might.
From Libav commit 05f66706d1.

The bits_per_raw_sample represents the number of bits of precision per sample.
The field is added at the logical place, not at the end as the code was just
recently added
This fixes the regression about losing the audio sample precision information
The change in the fate test checksum un-does the change from the merge

Some containers, like webm/mkv, will contain this mastering metadata.
This is analogous to the way 3D fpa data is handled (in frame and
packet side data).

This allows to copy information related to the stream ID from the demuxer
to the muxer, thus allowing for example to retain information related to
synchronous and asynchronous KLV data packets. This information is used
in the muxer when remuxing to distinguish the two kind of packets (if the
information is lacking, data packets are considered synchronous).
The fate reference changes are due to the use of
av_packet_merge_side_data(), which increases the size of the output
packet size, since side data is merged into the packet data.
This API is intended to allow passing around codec parameters without
using full AVCodecContext (which also contains codec options and
encoder/decoder state).
Decodes YUV 4:2:2 10-bit and RGB 12-bit files.
Older files with more subbands, skips, Bayer, alpha not supported.
Alpha requires addition of GBRAP12 pixel format.

It is a very codec-specific option, so deprecate the global variant.

The openh264 option is dropped altogether since it is just a fallback
for -max_nal_size anyway.

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.
