It does not work correctly and apparently never did. There is no
indication that this (mis)feature is ever used in the wild or even that
any software other than the reference supports it.
Since the code that attempts to support it adds some nontrivial
complexity and has resulted in several bugs in the past, it is better to
just drop it.
Currently, it needs to be initialized by the ER caller (which is
currently either a mpegvideo decoder or h264dec). However, since none of
those decoders use MECmpContext for anything except ER, it makes more
sense to handle it purely inside ER.
This can be optionally disabled whith the "output_corrupt" flags
option. When in "output_corrupt" mode, incomplete frames are
signalled through AVFrame.flags FRAME_FLAG_INCOMPLETE_FRAME.

The init functions marked as av_cold have to be executed in any case,
so there is no gain from trying to mark paths leading to such functions
as unlikely.
Instead, only extend edges on-demand when the motion vector actually
crosses the visible decoded area using ff_emulated_edge_mc(). This
changes decoding time for cathedral from 8.722sec to 8.706sec, i.e.
0.2% faster overall. More generally (VP8 uses this also), low-motion
content gets significant speed improvements, whereas high-motion content
tends to decode in approximately the same time.

Instead, keep them in the bitstream buffer until we read them verbatim,
this saves a memcpy() and a subsequent clearing of the target buffer.
decode_cabac+decode_mb for a sample file (CAPM3_Sony_D.jsv) goes from
6121.4 to 6095.5 cycles, i.e. 26 cycles faster.

Most of the changes are just trivial are just trivial replacements of
fields from MpegEncContext with equivalent fields in H264Context.
Everything in h264* other than h264.c are those trivial changes.
The nontrivial parts are:
1) extracting a simplified version of the frame management code from
mpegvideo.c. We don't need last/next_picture anymore, since h264 uses
its own more complex system already and those were set only to appease
the mpegvideo parts.
2) some tables that need to be allocated/freed in appropriate places.
3) hwaccels -- mostly trivial replacements.
for dxva, the draw_horiz_band() call is moved from
ff_dxva2_common_end_frame() to per-codec end_frame() callbacks,
because it's now different for h264 and MpegEncContext-based
decoders.
4) svq3 -- it does not use h264 complex reference system, so I just
added some very simplistic frame management instead and dropped the
use of ff_h264_frame_start(). Because of this I also had to move some
initialization code to svq3.

ref_list is constructed from other fields per slice when needed, so do
not copy it for both frame and slice threading.
default_ref_list is constructed per frame and still needs to be copied
to per-slice contexts for slice threading, but a copy is not needed for
frame threading.
Clobbering these tables will temporarily clobber the template used
as a basis for other threads to start decoding from. If the other
decoding thread updates from the template right at that moment,
subsequent threads will get invalid (or, usually, none at all) mmco
tables. This leads to invalid reference lists and subsequent decode
failures.
Therefore, instead, decode the mmco tables only for the first slice in
a field or frame. For other slices, decode the bits and ensure they
are identical to the mmco tables in the first slice, but don't ever
clobber the context state. This prevents other threads from using a
clobbered/invalid template as starting point for decoding, and thus
fixes decoding in these cases.
This fixes occasional (~1%) failures of h264-conformance-mr1_bt_a with
frame-multithreading enabled.

It is not posible to call get_buffer during frame-mt codec
initialization. Libavformat might pass huge amounts of data as
extradata after parsing broken files. The 'extradata' for the fuzzed
sample sample_varPAR_s5374_r001-02.avi is 2.8M large and contains
multiple slices.
This requires to move the avcodec_default_free_buffers() call to
ff_MPV_common_end() since otherwise delayed pictures would get freed
during a size change.
Conversion of the luma intra prediction mode to one of the constrained
("alzheimer") ones can happen by crafting special bitstreams, causing
a crash because we'll call a NULL function pointer for 16x16 block intra
prediction, since constrained intra prediction functions are only
implemented for chroma (8x8 blocks).

Start code emulation prevention is only required in Annex B bytestream
packed NAL units. For other coding formats the size is already known.
Looking for a start code prefix can result in false positives like in
http://streams.videolan.org/streams/mp4/Mr_MrsSmith-h264_aac.mp4
which has a false positive in the SPS.

FF_COMMON_FRAME holds the contents of the AVFrame structure and is also copied
to struct Picture. Replace by an embedded AVFrame structure in struct Picture.
Before this, almost all module groups have been used for grouping functions
and fields in structures semantically. This causes them to not appear
properly in the file documentation and needlessly clutters up the "Modules"
index.
Additionally, this commit streamlines some spelling and appearances.

In high bit depth the pixels will not be stored in uint8_t like in the
normal case, but in uint16_t. The pixel size is thus 1 in normal bit
depth and 2 in high bit depth.

Useful so that we don't have to run the hierarchical DC iDCT if there aren't
any coefficients. Opens up some future opportunities for optimization as well.

About 2.5x the speed.
NOTE: the way that the asm code handles large qmuls is a bit suboptimal.
If x264-style dequant was used (separate shift and qmul values), it might
be possible to get some extra speed.

This moves the H264-specific functions from DSPContext to the new
