We started defauling to nasm 8 years ago.
We are still compatible with yasm 0.8.0, released in 2009. **15 years ago**.
The time has more than come to remove support for it.
Maintaining compatibility started cutting into writing new code long ago.
We still can't have 2-argument instructions, preprocessor booleans, and all
AVX2 code must still be wrapped in ifdefs. Newly added code often breaks this.
Add a mechanism to AVClass to allow objects to signal their state to
generic code. When an object flags itself with the 'initialized' state,
print an error (and fail, after the next major bump) if the caller
attempts to set non-runtime options.
Will be used to export certain information present in HEIF samples, like
rotation metadata, ICC profiles, and potentially others.

"int-list" options are a hack that provides rudimentary support for
array-type options by treating them as byte arrays (i.e.
AV_OPT_TYPE_BINARY). Since we now have proper array-type options, they
should replace "int-list" everywhere (which happens to be just
buffersink).
This extends the syntax for specifying input streams in -map and complex
filtergraph labels, to allow selecting a view by view ID, index, or
position. The corresponding decoder is then set up to decode the
appropriate view and send frames for that view to the correct
filtergraph input(s).
Deprecate the option 'draw_bars' in favor of the new option 'signal_loss_action',
which controls the behavior when the input signal is not available
(including the behavior previously available through draw_bars).
The default behavior remains unchanged to be backwards compatible.
The new option is more flexible for extending now and in the future.
The new value 'repeat' repeats the last video frame.
This is useful for very short dropouts and was not available before.

This replaces the myriad of existing lists in AVCodec by a unified API
call, allowing us to (ultimately) trim down the sizeof(AVCodec) quite
substantially, while also making this more trivially extensible.
In addition to the already covered lists, add two new entries for color
space and color range, mirroring the newly added negotiable fields in
libavfilter.
Once the deprecation period passes for the existing public fields, the
rough plan is to move the commonly used fields (such as
pix_fmt/sample_fmt) into FFCodec, possibly as a union of audio and video
configuration types, and then implement the rarely used fields with
custom callbacks.
Previously one could only replace the entire array with a new one
deserialized from a string. The new API allows inserting, replacing, and
removing arbitrary element ranges.
Currently, this just functions as a more principled and user-friendly
replacement for the (undocumented and hard to use) *_chr_pos fields.
However, the goal is to automatically infer these values from the input
frames' chroma location, and deprecate the manual use of *_chr_pos
altogether. (Indeed, my plans for an swscale replacement will most
likely also end up limiting the set of legal chroma locations to those
permissible by AVFrame properties)
Vendor id will help to select desired device in case of kernel driver is
unknow or unsupported, for vendor may support different kernel driver on
different platforms.
