In (non-live) streams with no metadata, the duration of a stream can
be retrieved by calling the RTMP function getStreamLength with the
playpath. The server will return a positive duration upon the request if
the duration is known, otherwise either no response or a duration of 0
will be returned.

Packets that contain a number as a result to a rtmp function call are
structured the same way (String, Number, Null, Number). This new method
also includes more bounds checks to better handle packets that are not
structured as expected.

These allow getting the absolute start timestamp of a fragment
without reading preceding timestamps. This fixes sync between
tracks if starting from fragments in different streams that don't
align exactly.
This also is a prerequisite for producing DASH content.

Icecast uses HTTP 1.0 while Libav uses HTTP 1.1 and enables by
default chunked post.
Icecast actually forwards the HTTP chunk headers to the listener
as part of the media stream (without the chunk encoding HTTP headers)
causing the players to lose sync.
Disabling the option is enough to feed icecast properly.

This is necessary to get the right timestamp offset for content
that starts with dts != 0.
This currently only helps when writing fragmented files with a non-empty
moov atom. When writing an empty moov atom, we don't have any packets
yet, so we don't know the starting dts for the tracks.

This makes sure that audio preroll for e.g. AAC is signaled correctly.
Previously we only wrote the edit list correctly if we had negative
dts but started with pts == 0 (e.g. for video with B-frames).

In these cases, only drop dts. Because if we drop both we have no
timestamps at all for some files.
This improves playback of HLS streams from GoPro cameras.

Trying to write to a stream id larger the the maximum requested is
a programming error, still there is no reason to leave a
reachable abort() in the codebase.

This makes the field consistent with AVInputFormat.mime_type and the
argument type of av_match_name.

By using ff_avc_write_annexb_extradata instead of the h264_mp4toannexb
BSF, the code for doing the conversion itself is kept much shorter,
there's less state to restore at the end, we don't risk leaving the
AVCodecContext in an inconsistent state if returning early due to
errors, etc.
Also add a missing free if the base64 encoding fails.

The -hls_allow_cache parameter enables explicitly setting the
EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE tag in the manifest file. That tag indicates
whether the client MAY or MUST NOT cache downloaded media
segments for later replay.
Valid values are 1 (=YES) or 0 (=NO) and the EXT-X-ALLOW-CACHE
will not show in the manifest for other values (or if
-hls_allow_cache is not used.

When AVFMT_FLAG_NOBUFFER is set, the packets are not added to the
AVFormatContext packet list, so they need to be freed when they are
no longer needed.

The RFC spec draft only specifies the "H265" name - there is no
specification saying how to interpret "HEVC" (if such a packet
format is specified it could be an entirely different format).
Since this is a very new standard (still a draft), there is little
need for compatibility with existing, broken implementations. Therefore
remove the extra alias, to avoid the risk of encouraging incorrect
usage.
Intentionally keeping the ff_hevc_dynamic_handler name for the
handler, to use "hevc" consistently as name for the codec instead
of "h265" within the library internals as long as there only is one
single variant in actual use.

In practice this hint is ignored - the rtp muxer always overwrites
the stream time base without taking the hint into account. But as
a general practice this is the correct way to pass a time base hint
on to a chained muxer.
This avoids warnings about using the codec time base as hint
being deprecated.
