currently master playlist and subtitle playlist creation does not use
temporary files even when temp_file flag is set. Most of the use cases
it is not a problem because master playlist creation happens once on the
beginning of the whole process. But if master playlist is periodically
re-created because of master_pl_refresh_rate is set, non-atomic playlist
creation may cause problems in case of live streaming. This patch
correct this behavior by adding this functionality.

When multiple variant streams are specified by var_stream_map option,
%v is expected either in the filename or in the last sub-directory name,
but only in one of them. When both of them contains %v string, current
error message only states half of the truth.
And even %v may appears several times inside the last sub-directory name
or in filename pattern.
This patch clarifies this in the log message and in the doc also.

When multiple variant streams are specified by var_stream_map option, %v
placeholder in various names ensures that each variant has its unique
names. Currently %v is substituted by its variant index value (0, 1, 2
etc.). In some use cases it would be handy to specify names for variants
instead of numerical indexes. This patch makes it possible to use names
instead of default indexes. In var_stream_map option each or some of the
variant streams may use an optional name attributum (e.g.
-var_stream_map "v:0,a:0,name:sd v:1,a:1,name:720p") If a name is
specified for a variant, then this name value will be used as
substitution value of %v instead of the default index value.

Apple doesn't have an official spec for LHLS. Meanwhile hls.js player folks are
trying to standardize a open LHLS spec. The draft spec is available in https://github.com/video-dev/hlsjs-rfcs/blob/lhls-spec/proposals/0001-lhls.md
This option will also try to comply with the above open spec, till Apple's spec officially supports it.
Applicable only when @var{streaming} and @var{hls_playlist} options are enabled.
When dashenc has to run for long duration(say 24x7 live stream), one can enable this option to ignore the io failure of few segment's upload due to an intermittent network issues.
When the network connection recovers dashenc will continue with the upload of the current segments, leading to the recovery of the stream.
The file name template options now support a new "$ext$" placeholder,
which is replaced with a filename extension specific for the selected
file format. This is useful for the new "auto" format mode, when
different streams may use different file formats, and it is not
possible to specify the correct file name extension exactly.
Resolves warnings in the log about webm segments not having webm extensions.
This commit restores the ability to create DASH streams with codecs
that require different containers that was lost after commit
2efdbf7367. It adds a new "auto" value for
the dash_segment_type option and makes it the default. When in this mode,
the segment format will be chosen based on the codec used in the stream:
webm for Vorbis, Opus, VP8 or VP9, mp4 otherwise.
This fixes the grammar of two HLS option descriptions and makes them less
ambiguous.

ISMV lacks any sort of edit list support, as well as tfxd is
effectively the PTS of the fragment for most intents and purposes.
Thus, if b-frames are requested without negative CTS offsets you
end up with N frames' worth of delay (tfxd PTS plus the CTS offset
of the first sample). Negative CTS offsets enable the first sample
to have CTS=DTS, and thus a/v desync due to b-frame reorder delay
is avoided.
The producer reference time box supplies relative wall-clock times
at which movie fragments, or files containing movie fragments
(such as segments) were produced.
The box is mainly useful in live streaming use cases. A media player
can parse the box and utilize the time fields to measure and improve
the latency during real time playout.
Right now segment file format is chosen to be either mp4 or webm based on the codec format.
This patch makes that choice configurable by the user, instead of being decided by the muxer.
Also with this change per-stream choice segment file format(based on codec type) is not possible.
All the output audio and video streams should be in the same file format.
The logic is applicable only when use_template is enabled and use_timeline
is disabled. The logic monitors the flow of segment indexes. If a streams's
segment index value is not at the expected real time position, then
the logic corrects that index value.
Typically this logic is needed in live streaming use cases. The network
bandwidth fluctuations are common during long run streaming. Each
fluctuation can cause the segment indexes fall behind the expected real
time position. Without this logic, players will not be able to consume
the content, even after encoder's network condition comes back to
normal state.
When use_template is enabled and use_timeline is disabled, typically
it is required to generate the segments at the configured segment duration
rate on an average. This commit is particularly needed to handle the
segmentation when video frame rates are fractional like 29.97 or 59.94 fps.
There are use cases where average segment duration needs to be configured
and muxer is expected to maintain the average segment duration. So, using
the name 'min_seg_duration' will be misleading. So, changing the parameter
name to 'seg_duration', where it can be minimum segment duration or average
segment duration based on the use-case. The additional updates needed for
this functinality are made the sub-sequent patches of this patch series.
When using hls_list_size with hls_flags delete_segments, currently
hls_list_size * 2 +- segments remain on disk. With this new option,
the amount of disk space used can be controlled by the user.

This is to take full advantage of Common Media Application Format(CMAF).
Now server can generate one content and serve both HLS and DASH players.
