It was sort of optional before - if you didn't call it, networking was
initialized on demand, and an ugly warning was logged. Also, the doxygen
comments threatened that it would be made strictly required one day.
Make it explicitly optional. I would prefer to deprecate it fully, but
there might still be legitimate reasons to use this. But the average
user won't need it.
This is needed only for two reasons: to initialize TLS libraries like
OpenSSL and GnuTLS, and winsock.
OpenSSL and GnuTLS were already silently initialized on demand if the
global network init function was not called. They also have various
thread-safety acrobatics, which make concurrent initialization within
libavformat safe. In addition, the libraries are moving towards making
their global init functions safe, which removes all need for central
global init. In particular, GnuTLS 3.5.16 and OpenSSL 1.1.0g have been
found to have safe init functions. In all cases, they use internal
reference counters to avoid that the global uninit functions interfere
with concurrent uses of the library by other API users who called global
init.
winsock should be thread-safe as well, and maintains an internal
reference counter as well.
Since we still support ancient TLS libraries, which do not have this
fixed, and since it's unknown whether winsock and GnuTLS
reinitialization is costly in any way, don't deprecate the libavformat
functions yet.
It makes no sense to return an error after the first reconnect, and then
somehow resume the next time it's called. Usually this will lead to
demuxer errors. Make reconnecting block instead, until it has either
successfully reconnected, or given up.
Also make the wait reasonably interruptible. Since there is no mechanism
for this in the API, polling is the best we can do. This behaves roughly
the same as other interruptible network functions in libavformat.
(The original code would work if it returned AVERROR(EAGAIN) or so,
which would make retry_transfer_wrapper() repeat the read call. But I
think having an explicit loop for this is better anyway.)
I also snuck in a fix for reconnect_at_eof. It has to check for
AVERROR_EOF, not 0.
This can reduce latency and increase throughput, particularly on high
latency networks.

If the remote end of a connection oriented socket hangs up, generating
an EPIPE error is preferable over an unhandled SIGPIPE signal.

This avoids warnings if there already exists a definition.
This is the case on windows, where the getaddrinfo isn't available
and linked to (and we use our fallbacks instead, which actually
try to use the proper getaddrinfo version if found at runtime),
but gai_strerror still exists as a define.
