When decoding, this field holds the inverse of the framerate that can be
written in the headers for some codecs. Using a field called 'time_base'
for this is very misleading, as there are no timestamps associated with
it. Furthermore, this field is used for a very different purpose during
encoding.
Add a new field, called 'framerate', to replace the use of time_base for
decoding.
Decoding acceleration may work even if the codec level is higher than
the stated limit of the VDPAU driver. Or the problem may be considered
acceptable by the user. This flag allows skipping the codec level
capability checks and proceed with decoding.
Applications should obviously not set this flag by default, but only if
the user explicitly requested this behavior (and presumably knows how
to turn it back off if it fails).

These allow getting the absolute start timestamp of a fragment
without reading preceding timestamps. This fixes sync between
tracks if starting from fragments in different streams that don't
align exactly.
This also is a prerequisite for producing DASH content.

Currently, the amount of padding inserted at the beginning by some audio
encoders, is exported through AVCodecContext.delay. However
- the term 'delay' is heavily overloaded and can have multiple different
meanings even in the case of audio encoding.
- this field has entirely different meanings, depending on whether the
codec context is used for encoding or decoding (and has yet another
different meaning for video), preventing generic handling of the codec
context.
Therefore, add a new field -- AVCodecContext.initial_padding. It could
conceivably be used for decoding as well at a later point.
Icecast uses HTTP 1.0 while Libav uses HTTP 1.1 and enables by
default chunked post.
Icecast actually forwards the HTTP chunk headers to the listener
as part of the media stream (without the chunk encoding HTTP headers)
causing the players to lose sync.
Disabling the option is enough to feed icecast properly.

This is necessary to get the right timestamp offset for content
that starts with dts != 0.
This currently only helps when writing fragmented files with a non-empty
moov atom. When writing an empty moov atom, we don't have any packets
yet, so we don't know the starting dts for the tracks.

This makes sure that audio preroll for e.g. AAC is signaled correctly.
Previously we only wrote the edit list correctly if we had negative
dts but started with pts == 0 (e.g. for video with B-frames).

In these cases, only drop dts. Because if we drop both we have no
timestamps at all for some files.
This improves playback of HLS streams from GoPro cameras.

Trying to write to a stream id larger the the maximum requested is
a programming error, still there is no reason to leave a
reachable abort() in the codebase.

Wrap the function calls in a similar fashion to how it's being done
with the critical section API.
