The plugin loaded may not match the general implementation capability
wise.

It currently just calls av_init_packet(), which does not touch those
fields.

This will be useful in the following commits.

Do not pass just a bare AVFormatContext pointer around, wrap it in
struct. This will be useful in the following commits.

avprobe is not doing any decoding, so this is more correct than printing
information from a random codec implementation.

AVStream.codec is always non-NULL

Also, remove a stray line (apparently fallout from conflict resolution).

This avoids accessing NULL pointers in case of error.

The deinit function in the 'error' section will correctly free
everything.

This prefix is reserved for public functions only.

The reasoning is the same as for the corresponding qsvenc patch.

The QSV runtime expects the sync point address passed to
MFXVideoENCODE_EncodeFrameAsync() to be valid until
MFXVideoCORE_SyncOperation().

AVStream.codec is now deprecated. Allocate a separate codec context
instead.

The switch is not yet complete because the parsers and the bistream
filters do not have a new AVCodecParam-based API yet.

Open decoders first, next encoders. This makes sure that that
subtitle_header is always set properly, without relying on
avformat_find_stream_info() setting it.

Currently, AVStream contains an embedded AVCodecContext instance, which
is used by demuxers to export stream parameters to the caller and by
muxers to receive stream parameters from the caller. It is also used
internally as the codec context that is passed to parsers.

In addition, it is also widely used by the callers as the decoding (when
demuxer) or encoding (when muxing) context, though this has been
officially discouraged since Libav 11.

There are multiple important problems with this approach:
    - the fields in AVCodecContext are in general one of
        * stream parameters
        * codec options
        * codec state
      However, it's not clear which ones are which. It is consequently
      unclear which fields are a demuxer allowed to set or a muxer allowed to
      read. This leads to erratic behaviour depending on whether decoding or
      encoding is being performed or not (and whether it uses the AVStream
      embedded codec context).
    - various synchronization issues arising from the fact that the same
      context is used by several different APIs (muxers/demuxers,
      parsers, bitstream filters and encoders/decoders) simultaneously, with
      there being no clear rules for who can modify what and the different
      processes being typically delayed with respect to each other.
    - avformat_find_stream_info() making it necessary to support opening
      and closing a single codec context multiple times, thus
      complicating the semantics of freeing various allocated objects in the
      codec context.

Those problems are resolved by replacing the AVStream embedded codec
context with a newly added AVCodecParameters instance, which stores only
the stream parameters exported by the demuxers or read by the muxers.

This API is intended to allow passing around codec parameters without
using full AVCodecContext (which also contains codec options and
encoder/decoder state).

Some optimized functions reference optimized symbols, so the functions
must be explicitly disabled when those symbols are unavailable.

Some files may be missing for valid reasons, e.g. on compile failure.
