The new syntax is preferred since it allows backward syntax compatibility
with libswr when switching to the new option handling code with
AV_OPT_TYPE_CHANNEL_LAYOUT.
With the new parser the string:
1234
is interpreted as a channel layout mask, rather than as a number of
channels, and thus it's compatible with the current way to set a channel
layout as an integer (e.g. for the icl and ocl options) making use of
integer option values.
ff_get_channel_layout() with compat=0 will be used in the
AV_OPT_TYPE_CHANNEL handler code.
The user is encouraged to switch to the new forward compatible syntax,
which requires to put a trailing "c" when specifying a layout as a number
of channels.
