The buffer pool has to atomically add and remove entries from the linked
list of available buffers. This was done by removing the entire list
with a CAS operation, working on it, and then setting it back again
(using a retry-loop in case another thread was doing the same thing).
This could effectively cause memory leaks: while a thread was working on
the buffer list, other threads would allocate new buffers, increasing
the pool's total size. There was no real leak, but since these extra
buffers were not needed, but not free'd either (except when the buffer
pool was destroyed), this had the same effects as a real leak. For some
reason, growth was exponential, and could easily kill the process due
to OOM in real-world uses.
Fix this by using a mutex to protect the list operations. The fancy
way atomics remove the whole list to work on it is not needed anymore,
which also avoids the situation which was causing the leak.

Also add no-op fallbacks when threading is disabled.
This helps keeping the code clean if Libav is compiled for targets
without threading. Since we assume that no threads of any kind are used
in such configurations, doing nothing is ok by definition.
Based on a patch by wm4 <nfxjfg@googlemail.com>.

In order to support metadata being set as an option, it's necessary to be able
to set dictionaries as values.

The rationale is that you have a packed format in form
<greyscale sample> <alpha sample> <greyscale sample> <alpha sample>
and shortening greyscale to 'G' might make one thing about Greenscale instead.
An alias pixel format and color space name are provided for compatibility.
libavutil/cpu-test prints raw and effective cpu flags to STDERR. Detected
cpu flags can be useful for debugging fate errors.
No comparison of the result against a expected result since that would
require fate config specific references.
I benchmarked the result by measuring the number of gperftools samples that
hit anywhere in the AAC decoder (starting from aac_decode_frame()) or
specifically in butterflies_float_c() / ff_butterflies_float_vfp() for the
same sample AAC stream:
Before After
Mean StdDev Mean StdDev Confidence Change
Audio decode 1542.8 43.7 1470.5 41.5 100.0% +4.9%
butterflies_float 130.0 11.9 70.2 12.1 100.0% +85.2%

When running on a 64 bit kernel, /proc/cpuinfo lists different
optional features than on 32 bit kernels (because some of them
are mandatory in the 64 bit implemenations).
The kernel does list the old features properly if they are queried
via /proc/self/auxv though - however this file is not always readable
(e.g. on most android systems). The getauxval function could also
provide the same info as /proc/self/auxv even if this file isn't
readable, but this function is not always available (and thus would
need to be loaded with dlsym for compatibility with older android
versions).
The android cpufeatures library does this slightly differently,
by assuming that these are available if the "CPU architecture"
line is >= 8, see [1] for details.
It has been suggested to include the old, non-optional features in
/proc/cpuinfo as well, but that suggested patch never was merged.
See [2] for the discussion around this suggestion.

Both gnu as and clang treat lines starting with '#' as comments if they
aren't consumed by the C-style preprocessor.
Using '//' does not work with clang since comments are removed before
macro expansion.
Blackfin is a painful platform to work with, no test machines are available
and the range of multimedia applications is dubious. Thus it only represents
a maintenance burden.
This fixes building in PIC mode with gas. The examples in the gas
manual showed using a # here even though gas itself actually didn't
support that syntax (and the gas test suite only tests it without
the extra hash sign).
