    avformat/avc, mxfenc: Avoid allocation of H264 SPS structure, fix memleak · 3cf212f6
    Andreas Rheinhardt authored
    Up until now, ff_avc_decode_sps would parse a SPS and return some
    properties from it in a freshly allocated structure. Yet said structure
    is very small and completely internal to libavformat, so there is no
    reason to use the heap for it. This commit therefore changes the
    function to return an int and to modify a caller-provided structure.
    This will also allow ff_avc_decode_sps to return better error codes in
    the future.
    
    It also fixes a memleak in mxfenc: If a packet contained multiple SPS,
    only the SPS structure belonging to the last SPS would be freed, the
    other ones would leak when the pointer is overwritten to point to the
    new SPS structure. Of course, without allocations there are no leaks.
    This is Coverity issue #1445194.
    
    Furthermore, the SPS structure has been renamed from
    H264SequenceParameterSet to H264SPS in order to avoid overlong lines.
