On ARM platforms, accessing the PMU registers requires special user
access permissions. Since there is no other way to get accurate timers,
the current implementation of timers in FFmpeg rely on these registers.
Unfortunately, enabling user access to these registers on Linux is not
trivial, and generally involve compiling a random and unreliable github
kernel module, or patching somehow your kernel.
Such module is very unlikely to reach the upstream anytime soon. Quoting

As a result, the alternative is to use the Performance Monitoring Linux
API which makes use of these registers internally (assuming the PMU of
your ARM board is supported in the kernel, which is definitely not a
given...).
While the Linux API is obviously cross platform, it does have a
significant overhead which needs to be taken into account. As a result,
that mode is only weakly enabled on ARM platforms exclusively.
Note on the non flexibility of the implementation: the timers (native
FFmpeg vs Linux API) are selected at compilation time to prevent the
need of function calls, which would result in a negative impact on the
cycle counters.
When parsing a monochrome file, chroma_log2_weight_denom was used without
being initialized, which could lead to a bogus error message being printed, e.g.
[h264 @ 0x61a000026480] chroma_log2_weight_denom 24576 is out of range
It also could led to warnings using AddressSanitizer.

Use the earliest input with the same status.
If that fails, print a warning and use the earliest source.
With this change, simple filter forward correctly the timestamp
of EOF.
Filters that are supposed to change it should be updated to
actually forward it.
Adds another test for asetnsamples filter where padding of the last
frame is switched off. Renames the existing test to make the difference
obvious.

If the metadata packet is corrupted, flv_read_metabody can accidentally
read past the start of the next packet. If the start of the next packet
had been flushed out of the IO buffer, we would be unable to seek to
the right position (on a nonseekable stream).
Prefer to clearly error out instead of silently trying to read from a
desynced stream which will only be interpreted as garbage.

which in case of a failure would not be freed as close() isn't called afterwards.
