While I'm not very fond of "const", it's important for declarations
(it decides whether a symbol is emitted in a read-only or read/write
section). Fix all these cases, so we have writeable global data only
when we really need.
Always pass around mp_log contexts in the option parser code. This of
course affects all users of this API as well.
In stream.c, pass a mp_null_log, because we can't do it properly yet.
This will be fixed later.
FFmpeg (as well as Libav) have two layouts called "6.1":
AV_CH_LAYOUT_6POINT1 and AV_CH_LAYOUT_6POINT1_BACK. We call them "6.1"
and "6.1(back)". Change the default layout for 7 channels as well to
return the same layout as av_get_default_channel_layout(). (Looks a bit
questionable, but for now it's better to follow FFmpeg.)
It turns out that ALSA's 4 channel layout is different from mpv's and
ffmpeg's 4.0 layout. Thus trying to do 4 channel output led to incorrect
remixing via lib{av,sw}resample.
Fix the default layouts for the internal filter chain as well, although
I'm not sure if it matters at all.
The point is selecting a minimal fallback. The AOs will call this
through the AO API, so it will be possible to add options affecting
the general channel layout selection.
It provides the following mechanism to AOs:
- forcing the correct channel order
- downmixing to stereo if no layout is available
- allow 5.1 <-> 5.1(side) fallback
- handling "unknown" channel layouts
This is quite weak and lots of code/complexity for little gain. All AOs
already made sure the channel order was correct, and the fallback is of
little value, and could perhaps be done in the frontend instead, like
stereo downmixing with --channels=2 is handled. But I'm not really sure
how this stuff should _really_ work, and the new code will hopefully
provides enough flexibility to make radical changes to channel layout
negotiation easier.
