    lavc: add avcodec_free_context(). · fd056029
    Anton Khirnov authored
    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.
