imgconvert: Add the proper API guards to a deprecated function
Merged-by: Derek Buitenhuis <derek.buitenhuis@gmail.com>
The b_frame_strategy option is only used by mpegvideoenc, qsv, x264, and
xavs, while b_sensitivity is only used by mpegvideoenc.
These are very codec-specific options, so deprecate the global variants.
Set proper limits to the maximum allowed values.

It serves absolutely no purpose other than to confuse potentional
Android developers about how to use hardware acceleration properly
on the the platform. The stagefright "API" is not public, and the
MediaCodec API is the proper way to do this.
Furthermore, stagefright support in avcodec needs a series of
magic incantations and version-specific stuff, such that
using it actually provides downsides compared just using the actual
Android frameworks properly, in that it is a lot more work and confusion
to get it even running. It also leads to a lot of misinformation, like
these sorts of comments (in [1]) that are absolutely incorrect.

avpacket: add a function for wrapping existing data as side data
Merged-by: Hendrik Leppkes <h.leppkes@gmail.com>
These variables are coming from mpegvideoenc where are supposedly used
as bit counters on various frame properties. However their use is
unclear as they lack documentation, are available only from a very small
subset of encoders, and they are hardly used in the wild. Also frame_bits
in aacenc is employed in a similar way.
Remove this functionality from AVCodecContex, these variable are mostly
frame properties, and too few encoders support setting them with anything
useful.

Most option values are simply unused or ignored and in practice the
majory of codecs only need to check whether to enable rle or not.
Add appropriate codec private options which better expose the allowed
features.

avcodec: Define side data type for fallback track
Merged-by: Derek Buitenhuis <derek.buitenhuis@gmail.com>
This function returns the encoded data of a frame, one slice at a time
directly when that slice is encoded, instead of waiting for the full
frame to be done. However this field has a debatable usefulness, since
it looks like it is just a convoluted way to get data at lowest
possible latency, or a somewhat hacky way to store h263 in RFC-2190
rtp encapsulation.
Moreover when multi-threading is enabled (which is by default) the order
of returned slices is not deterministic at all, making the use of this
function not reliable at all (or at the very least, more complicated
than it should be).
So, for the reasons stated above, and being used by only a single encoder
family (mpegvideo), this field is deemed unnecessary, overcomplicated,
and not really belonging to libavcodec. Libavformat features a complete
implementation of RFC-2190, for any other case.

This side data type is meant to be added to AVStream side data.
A fallback track indicates an alternate track to use when the
current track can not be decoded for some reason. e.g. no
decoder available for codec.

Use the new fields directly instead of the ones from AVPicture.
This removes a layer of indirection which serves no pratical purpose
whatsoever, and will help in removing AVPicture structure completely
later.
Every subtitle encoder/decoder seamlessly points to the new arrays,
so it is possible to deprecate AVSubtitleRect.pict.

This commit shall introduce the first step of adding support for the
Daala next generation video codec to FFmpeg. Although still in
development, the codec is showing good progress and exchanging work
through IETF drafts. The companies behind Daala are also participating
in the Alliance for Open Media, so it's likely that whatever the result
any of these collaborations produce it's probable that elements from
Daala could be used in them, or perhaps this codec itself could be the
result.
