Deprecate the now unused option, but temporarily retain the capability
to disable the now default behaviour.
Mention this change in the AVPacket documentation.

This option is extremely codec specific and only a few codecs employ it.
Move it to codec private options instead: mpegenc family supports only 3
values, xavs and x264 use 5, and xvid has a different metric entirely.

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.

This is necessary to preserve the quality information currently exported
with coded_frame. Add the new side data to every encoder that needs it,
and use it in avconv.

They are used by dnxhd and mpegvideo_enc exclusively, move them to codec
private options instead.

Bump the minimum libvpx version to 1.3.0 and rework the configure logic
to fail only if no decoders and encoders are found.

This is useful for client programs to ask for nv12 surfaces instead of the
current default (uyvy), since those are more efficient to decode to.

Compared to existing, common opensource H264 encoders, this can be
useful since it has got a different license (BSD instead of GPL).
Performance- and qualitywise it is comparable to x264 in ultrafast
mode.
Hooking it up as an encoder in libavcodec also simplifies comparing
it against other common encoders.
This requires OpenH264 1.3 or newer. Since the OpenH264 API and ABI
changes frequently, only releases are supported.
To take advantage of the OpenH264 patent offer, the OpenH264 library
must not be redistributed, but downloaded at runtime at the end-user's
system.

Since the VDPAU pixel format does not distinguish between different
VDPAU video surface chroma types, we need another way to pass this
data to the application.
Originally VDPAU in libavcodec only supported decoding to 8-bits YUV
with 4:2:0 chroma sampling. Correspondingly, applications assumed that
libavcodec expected VDP_CHROMA_TYPE_420 video surfaces for output.
However some of the new HEVC profiles proposed for addition to VDPAU
would require different depth and/or sampling:

...as would lossless AVC profiles:

To preserve backward binary compatibility with existing applications,
a new av_vdpau_bind_context() flag is introduced in a further change.

This can be used by the application to signal its ability to cope with
video surface of types other than 8-bits YUV 4:2:0.

This carries the pixel format that would be used if it were not for
hardware acceleration. This is equal to AVCodecContext.pix_fmt if
hardware acceleration is not in use.
