Currently AVBR is disabled and VBR is the default method if maxrate is
not specified on Linux, but AVBR is the default one if maxrate is not
specified on Windows. In order to make user experience better accross
Linux and Windows, use VBR by default on Windows if maxrate is not
specified. User need to set both avbr_accuracy and avbr_convergence to
non-zero explicitly and not to specify maxrate if AVBR is expected.
In addition, AVBR works for H264 and HEVC only in the SDK.

Using parameter from AVCodecContext to reset qsv codec is more suitable
for MFXVideoENCODE_Reset()'s usage. Per-frame metadata is more suitable
for the usage of mfxEncodeCtrl being passed to
MFXVideoENCODE_EncodeFrameAsync(). Now change it to use the value
from AVCodecContext.
Because q->param is passed to both "in" and "out" parameters when call
MFXVideoENCODE_Query(), the value in q->param may be changed. New
variables are added to store old configuration, so that we can detect
real parameter change.

Fix: #7706. After commit 5fdcf85bbf, vaapi encoder's performance
decrease. The reason is that vaRenderPicture() and vaSyncBuffer() are
called at the same time (vaRenderPicture() always followed by a
vaSyncBuffer()). Now I changed them to be called in a asynchronous way,
which will make better use of hardware.
Async_depth is added to increase encoder's performance. The frames that
are sent to hardware are stored in a fifo. Encoder will sync output
after async fifo is full.

In order to fine-control referencing schemes in VP9 encoding, there
is a need to use VP9E_SET_SVC_REF_FRAME_CONFIG method. This commit
provides a way to use the API through frame metadata.
The AC3 encoder used to be a separate library called "Aften", which
got merged into libavcodec (literally, SVN commits and all).
The merge preserved as much features from the library as possible.
The code had two versions - a fixed point version and a floating
point version. FFmpeg had floating point DSP code used by other
codecs, the AC3 decoder including, so the floating-point DSP was
simply replaced with FFmpeg's own functions.
However, FFmpeg had no fixed-point audio code at that point. So
the encoder brought along its own fixed-point DSP functions,
including a fixed-point MDCT.
The fixed-point MDCT itself is trivially just a float MDCT with a
different type and each multiply being a fixed-point multiply.
So over time, it got refactored, and the FFT used for all other codecs
was templated.
Due to design decisions at the time, the fixed-point version of the
encoder operates at 16-bits of precision. Although convenient, this,
even at the time, was inadequate and inefficient. The encoder is noisy,
does not produce output comparable to the float encoder, and even
rings at higher frequencies due to the badly approximated winow function.
Enter MIPS (owned by Imagination Technologies at the time). They wanted
quick fixed-point decoding on their FPUless cores. So they contributed
patches to template the AC3 decoder so it had both a fixed-point
and a floating-point version. They also did the same for the AAC decoder.
They however, used 32-bit samples. Not 16-bits. And we did not have
32-bit fixed-point DSP functions, including an MDCT. But instead of
templating our MDCT to output 3 versions (float, 32-bit fixed and 16-bit fixed),
they simply copy-pasted their own MDCT into ours, and completely
ifdeffed our own MDCT code out if a 32-bit fixed point MDCT was selected.
This is also the status quo nowadays - 2 separate MDCTs, one which
produces floating point and 16-bit fixed point versions, and one
sort-of integrated which produces 32-bit MDCT.
MIPS weren't all that interested in encoding, so they left the encoder
as-is, and they didn't care much about the ifdeffery, mess or quality - it's
not their problem.
So the MDCT/FFT code has always been a thorn in anyone looking to clean up
code's eye.
Backstory over. Internally AC3 operates on 25-bit fixed-point coefficients.
So for the floating point version, the encoder simply runs the float MDCT,
and converts the resulting coefficients to 25-bit fixed-point, as AC3 is inherently
a fixed-point codec. For the fixed-point version, the input is 16-bit samples,
so to maximize precision the frame samples are analyzed and the highest set
bit is detected via ac3_max_msb_abs_int16(), and the coefficients are then
scaled up via ac3_lshift_int16(), so the input for the FFT is always at least 14 bits,
computed in normalize_samples(). After FFT, the coefficients are scaled up to 25 bits.
This patch simply changes the encoder to accept 32-bit samples, reusing
the already well-optimized 32-bit MDCT code, allowing us to clean up and drop
a large part of a very messy code of ours, as well as prepare for the future lavu/tx
conversion. The coefficients are simply scaled down to 25 bits during windowing,
skipping 2 separate scalings, as the hacks to extend precision are simply no longer
necessary. There's no point in running the MDCT always at 32 bits when you're
going to drop 6 bits off anyway, the headroom is plenty, and the MDCT rounds
properly.
This also makes the encoder even slightly more accurate over the float version,
as there's no coefficient conversion step necessary.

The manual states "there is virtually no reason to use that encoder.".
It supports less sample formats than the native encoder, is less efficient
than the native encoder and is also slower and pretty much remains untested.
libwavpack also isn't being fuzzed, which given that we plug the parameters
without any sanitizing them looks concerning.
