Major release means new formats and failing tests so just add the new
stuff to the ref again and bump the minimum libavutil version. The last
ffmpeg commit that added a new format and is the minimum required
version for these subset of tests is referenced below.

A few formats were added recently, some were removed, and some flags
were changed. Maybe this should be better, but just update for now so
the tests stop failing.
Whatever it's worth. Instead of doing a pretty stupid conversion to
float, just blend it directly. This works for most RGB formats that are
8 bits per component or below (the latter because we expand packed
fringe RGB formats for simplicity). For higher bit depth RGB this would
need extra code.
This checked params->color.space for being RGB. If the colorspace is
unset, this did dumb things because even if the imgfmt was a RGB one,
the colorspace was not set to RGB. This actually also happened to the
tests.
(Short-cutting RGB like this is actually wrong, since RGB could still
have strange gamma or primaries, which would warrant a full conversion.
So you'd need to check for these other parameters as well. To be fixed
later.)
draw_bmp.c is the software blender for subtitles and OSD. It's used by
encoding mode (burning subtitles), and some VOs, like vo_drm, vo_x11,
vo_xv, and possibly more.
This changes the algorithm from upsampling the video to 4:4:4 and then
blending to downsampling the OSD and then blending directly to video.
This has far-reaching consequences for its internals, and results in an
effective rewrite.
Since I wanted to avoid un-premultiplying, all blending is done with
premultiplied alpha. That's actually the sane thing to do. The old code
just didn't do it, because it's very weird in YUV fixed point.
Essentially, you'd have to compensate for the chroma centering constant
by subtracting src_alpha/255*128. This seemed so hairy (especially with
correct rounding and high bit depths involved) that I went for using
float.
I think it turned out mostly OK, although it's more complex and less
maintainable than before. reinit() is certainly a bit too long. While it
should be possible to optimize the RGB path more (for example by
blending directly instead of doing the stupid float conversion), this is
probably slower. vo_xv users probably lose in this, because it takes the
slowest path (due to subsampling requirements and using YUV).
Why this rewrite? Nobody knows. I simply forgot the reason. But you'll
have it anyway. Whether or not this would have required a full rewrite,
at least it supports target alpha now (you can for example hard sub
transparent PNGs, if you ever wanted to use mpv for this).
Remove the check in vf_sub. The new draw_bmp.c is not as reliant on
libswscale anymore (mostly uses repack.c now), and osd.c shows an
error message on missing support instead now.
Formats with chroma subsampling of 4 are not supported, because FFmpeg
doesn't provide pixfmt definitions for alpha variants. We could provide
those ourselves (relatively trivial), but why bother.
