    avcodec/avpacket: Always treat dst in av_packet_ref as uninitialized · e621f2b6
    Andreas Rheinhardt authored
    av_packet_ref() mostly treated the destination packet dst as uninitialized,
    i.e. the destination fields were simply overwritten. But if the source
    packet was not reference-counted, dst->buf was treated as if it pointed
    to an already allocated buffer (if != NULL) to be reallocated to the
    desired size.
    
    The documentation did not explicitly state whether the dst will be treated
    as uninitialized, but it stated that if the source packet is not refcounted,
    a new buffer in dst will be allocated. This and the fact that the side-data
    as well as the codepath taken in case src is refcounted always treated the
    packet as uninitialized means that dst should always be treated as
    uninitialized for the sake of consistency. And this behaviour has been
    explicitly documented.
