Some encoders (e.g. flac) need to send side data when there is no more
data to be output. This enables them to output a packet with no data in
it, only side data.
Right now, the caller has to manually manage some allocated
AVCodecContext fields, like extradata or subtitle_header. This is
fragile and prone to leaks, especially if we want to add more such
fields in the future.
The only reason for this behaviour is so that the AVStream codec context
can be reused for decoding. Such reuse is discouraged anyway, so this
commit is the first step to deprecating it.

Old Intel GPUs expect the reference frame index to the actual surface,
instead of the index into RefFrameList as specified by the spec.
This workaround should be set when using one of the "ClearVideo" decoder
devices.

The old implementation is unusable due to changes in the Xvid API.

XvMC has long ago been superseded by newer acceleration APIs, such as
VDPAU, and few downstreams still support it. Furthermore XvMC is not
implemented within the hwaccel framework, but requires its own specific
code in the MPEG-1/2 decoder, which is a maintenance burden.
