I went through all codecs and put them into five basic categories:
1. JPEG range only
2. MPEG range only
3. Explicitly tagged
4. Broken (codec supports both but encoder ignores tags)
5. N/A (headerless or pseudo-formats)
Filters in category 5 remain untouched. The rest gain an explicit
assignment of their supported color ranges, with codecs in category
4 being set to MPEG-only for safety.
It might be considered redundant to distinguish between 0 (category 5)
and MPEG+JPEG (category 3), but in doing so we effectively communicate
that we can guarantee that these tags will be encoded, which is distinct
from the situation where there are some codecs that simply don't have
tagging or implied semantics (e.g. rawvideo).
A full list of codecs follows:
JPEG range only:
- amv

- rv10, rv20
- snow
- speedhq
- svq1

Explicitly tagged (MPEG/JPEG):

N/A:
- ayuv, yuv4, y41p, v308, v210, v410, v408 (headerless)
- pgmyuv (headerless)
- rawvideo, bitpacked (headerless)
- vnull, wrapped_avframe (pseudocodecs)
There are lots of files that don't need it: The number of object
files that actually need it went down from 2011 to 884 here.
Keep it for external users in order to not cause breakages.
Also improve the other headers a bit while just at it.

It reduces typing: Before this patch, there were 105 codecs
whose long_name-definition exceeded the 80 char line length
limit. Now there are only nine of them.

and remove FF_CODEC_CAP_INIT_THREADSAFE
All our native codecs are already init-threadsafe
(only wrappers for external libraries and hwaccels
are typically not marked as init-threadsafe yet),
so it is only natural for this to also be the default state.

This is possible, because every given FFCodec has to implement
exactly one of these. Doing so decreases sizeof(FFCodec) and
therefore decreases the size of the binary.
Notice that in case of position-independent code the decrease
is in .data.rel.ro, so that this translates to decreased
memory consumption.

Up until now, codec.h contains both public and private parts
of AVCodec. This exposes the internals of AVCodec to users
and leads them into the temptation of actually using them
and forces us to forward-declare structures and types that
users can't use at all.
This commit changes this by adding a new structure FFCodec to
codec_internal.h that extends AVCodec, i.e. contains the public
AVCodec as first member; the private fields of AVCodec are moved
to this structure, leaving codec.h clean.

Also move FF_CODEC_TAGS_END as well as struct AVCodecDefault.
This reduces the amount of files that have to include internal.h
(which comes with quite a lot of indirect inclusions), as e.g.
most encoders don't need it. It is furthemore in preparation
for moving the private part of AVCodec out of the public codec.h.

It is now set generically for all those encoders whose corresponding
AVCodecDescriptor has the AV_CODEC_PROP_INTRA_ONLY.

Given that the AVCodec.next pointer has now been removed, most of the
AVCodecs are not modified at all any more and can therefore be made
const (as this patch does); the only exceptions are the very few codecs
for external libraries that have a init_static_data callback.

Both are codec properties and not encoder capabilities. The relevant
AVCodecDescriptor.props flags exist for this purpose.
