The A32 bitstream reader variant is only used on ARMv5 and for
Prores due to the larger bit cache this decoder requires.
In benchmarks on ARMv5 (Marvell Sheeva) with gcc 4.6, the only
statistically significant difference between ALT and A32 is
a 4% advantage for ALT in FLAC decoding. There is thus no (longer)
any reason to keep the A32 reader from this point of view.
This patch adds an option to the ALT reader increasing the bit
cache to 32 bits as required by the Prores decoder. Benchmarking
shows no significant change in speed on Intel i7. Again, the
A32 reader fails to justify its existence.

Make the function prototype match the argument of
AVCodecCntext.execute() and remove the cast hiding
this mismatch.

The pixel format is not known until the frame header is parsed.
Guessing it here only causes trouble for the caller if the guess
turns out to be wrong (and actually causes very wrong output by
avconv/avplay).
