This patch builds on my previous DFPWM codec patch, adding a raw
audio format to be able to read/write the raw files that are most commonly
used (as no other container format supports it yet).
The muxers are mostly copied from the PCM demuxer and the raw muxers, as
DFPWM is typically stored as raw data.
Please see the previous patch for more information on DFPWM.

From the wiki page (https://wiki.vexatos.com/dfpwm):
> DFPWM (Dynamic Filter Pulse Width Modulation) is an audio codec
> created by Ben “GreaseMonkey” Russell in 2012, originally to be used
> as a voice codec for asiekierka's pixmess, a C remake of 64pixels.
> It is a 1-bit-per-sample codec which uses a dynamic-strength one-pole
> low-pass filter as a predictor. Due to the fact that a raw DPFWM decoding
> creates a high-pitched whine, it is often followed by some post-processing
> filters to make the stream more listenable.
It has recently gained popularity through the ComputerCraft mod for
Minecraft, which added support for audio through this codec, as well as
the Computronics expansion which preceeded the official support. These
both implement the slightly adjusted 1a version of the codec, which is
the version I have chosen for this patch.
This patch adds a new codec (with encoding and decoding) for DFPWM1a.
The codec sources are pretty simple: they use the reference codec with
a basic wrapper to connect it to the FFmpeg AVCodec system.
To clarify, the codec does not have a specific sample rate - it is
provided by the container (or user), which is typically 48000, but has
also been known to be 32768. The codec does not specify channel info
either, and it's pretty much always used with one mono channel.
However, since it appears that libavcodec expects both sample rate and
channel count to be handled by either the codec or container, I have
made the decision to allow multiple channels interleaved, which as far
as I know has never been used, but it works fine here nevertheless. The
accompanying raw format has a channels option to set this. (I expect
most users of this will not use multiple channels, but it remains an
option just in case.)
This patch will be highly useful to ComputerCraft developers who are
working with audio, as it is the standard format for audio, and there
are few user-friendly encoders out there, and even fewer decoders. It
will streamline the process for importing and listening to audio,
replacing the need to write code or use tools that require very
specific input formats.
You may use the CraftOS-PC program (https://www.craftos-pc.cc) to test
out DFPWM playback. To use it, run the program and type this command:
"attach left speaker" Then run "speaker play <file.dfpwm>" for each file.
The app runs in a sandbox, so files have to be transferred in first;
the easiest way to do this is to simply drag the file on the window.
(Or copy files to the folder at https://www.craftos-pc.cc/docs/saves.)
Sample DFPWM files can be generated with an online tool at
https://music.madefor.cc. This is the current best way to encode DFPWM
files. Simply drag an audio file onto the page, and it will encode it,
giving a download link on the page.
I've made sure to update all of the docs as per Developer§7, and I've
tested it as per section 8. Test files encoded to DFPWM play correctly
in ComputerCraft, and other files that work in CC are correctly decoded.
I have also verified that corrupt files do not crash the decoder - this
should theoretically not be an issue as the result size is constant with
respect to the input size.

They correspond to the relevant fields from the packet that follows the
one where the expressions are being applied.

Fix: #7706. After commit 5fdcf85bbf, vaapi encoder's performance
decrease. The reason is that vaRenderPicture() and vaSyncBuffer() are
called at the same time (vaRenderPicture() always followed by a
vaSyncBuffer()). Now I changed them to be called in a asynchronous way,
which will make better use of hardware.
Async_depth is added to increase encoder's performance. The frames that
are sent to hardware are stored in a fifo. Encoder will sync output
after async fifo is full.

Users should switch to the superior AVFifo API.
Unfortunately AVFifoBuffer fields cannot be marked as deprecated because
it would trigger a warning wherever fifo.h is #included, due to
inlined av_fifo_peek2().
Many AVFifoBuffer users operate on fixed-size elements (e.g. pointers),
but the current FIFO API deals exclusively in bytes, requiring extra
complexity in all these callers.
Add a new AVFifo API creating a FIFO with an element size
that may be larger than a byte. All operations on such a FIFO then
operate on complete elements.
This API does not reuse AVFifoBuffer and its API at all, but instead uses
an opaque struct called AVFifo. The AVFifoBuffer API will be deprecated
in a future commit once all of its users have been switched to the new
API.
Not reusing AVFifoBuffer also allowed to use the full range of size_t
from the beginning.
Add intra refresh support to hevc_qsv as well.
Add an new intra refresh type: "horizontal", and an new param
ref_cycle_dist. This param specify the distance between the
beginnings of the intra-refresh cycles in frames.

Add b_strategy option to hevc_qsv. By enabling this option, encoder can
use b frames as reference.
