After this claim was made in e34e361 kamedo2 did an in-depth ABX
test comparing these encoders:
https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?topic=111085.0
Result: FFmpeg AAC wasn't as good as libfdk_aac on average.
I know some things have changed since then such as, "use the fast
coder as the default" (fcb681ac) for example, so maybe the situation
is different now.
However, I am unaware of any recent comparison. So without any
substantiation we shouldn't make such a blantant claim.

Up until now the documentation of ff_bsf_get_packet_ref() allowed return
values >= 0 in case of success, whereas av_bsf_receive_packet() only
allows 0 on success. Given that for some bitstream filters the return
value of ff_bsf_get_packet_ref() is forwarded to the caller of
av_bsf_receive_packet() without any filtering, there would be a problem
if ff_bsf_get_packet_ref() actually returned values > 0. But it
currently doesn't and there is no reason why it should ever do so.
Therefore this commit aligns the return values of these functions by
restricting ff_bsf_get_packet_ref() to always returns 0 on success.

hls_init() would at first allocate the vtt_basename string, then
allocate the vtt_m3u8_name string followed by several operations that
may fail and then open the subtitles' output context. Yet upon freeing,
these strings were only freed when the subtitles' output context
existed, ensuring that they leak if something goes wrong between their
allocation and the opening of the subtitles' output context. So drop the
check for whether this output context exists.

This fixes memleaks in instances such as:
a) When an allocation fails at one of the two places in hls_init() where
the error is returned immediately without goto fail first.
b) When an error happens when writing the header.
c) When an allocation fails at one of the three places in
hls_write_trailer() where the error is returned immediately without goto
fail first.
d) When one decides not to write the trailer at all (e.g. because of
errors when writing packets).
Furthermore, it removes code duplication and allows to return
immediately, without goto fail first.

The Matroska specification allows multiple (level 1) Tags elements per
file, yet our demuxer didn't: While it parsed any amount of Tags
elements it found in front of the Clusters (albeit with warnings because
of duplicate elements), it would treat any Tags element only referenced
via a SeekHead entry as already parsed if any Tags element has already
been parsed; therefore this Tags element would not be parsed at all.

There can be more than one SeekHead in a Matroska file, but most of the
other level 1 elements can only occur once.* Therefore the Matroska
demuxer only allows one entry per ID in its internal list of level 1
elements known to it; the only exception to this are SeekHeads.
The only exception to this are SeekHeads: When one is encountered
(either directly or in the list of entries read from SeekHeads),
a new entry in the list of known level-1 elements is always added,
even when this entry is actually already known.
This leads to lots of seeks in case of circular SeekHeads: Each time a
SeekHead is parsed, a new entry for a SeekHead will be added to the list
of entries read from SeekHeads. The exception for SeekHeads mentioned
above now implies that this SeekHead will always appear new and unparsed
and parsing will be attempted. This continued until the list of known
level-1 elements is full.
Fixing this is pretty simple: Don't add a new entry for a SeekHead if
its position matches the position of an already known SeekHead.
*: Actually, there can be multiple Tags and several other level 1
elements are "identically recurring" which means they may be resent
multiple times, but each instance must be absolutely identical to the
previous.

A Seek element in a Matroska SeekHead should contain a SeekID and a
SeekPosition element and upon reading, they should be sanitized:
Given that IDs are restricted to 32 bit, longer SeekIDs should be treated
as invalid. Instead currently the lower 32 bits have been used.
For SeekPosition, no checks were performed for the element to be
present and if present, whether it was excessively large (i.e. the
absolute file position described by it exceeding INT64_MAX). The
SeekPosition element had a default value of -1 which means that a check
seems to have been intended; but it was not implemented. This commit adds
a check for overflow to the calculation of the absolute file position of
the referenced level 1 elements.
Using -1 (i.e. UINT64_MAX) as default value for SeekPosition implies that
a Seek element without SeekPosition will run afoul of this check.

Generic retime functionality is replaced by a few lines of code directly in the
muxers which used it, which seems a lot easier to understand and this way the
retiming is not dependant of the input durations.
Also remove retimeinterleave, since it is not used by anything anymore.

Previously only 1:1 bitstream filters were supported, the end of the stream was
not signalled to the bitstream filters and time base changes were ignored.
This change also allows muxers to set up bitstream filters regardless of the
autobsf flag during write_header instead of during check_bitstream and those
bitstream filters will always be executed.

Failures of the allocations that happen under the hood when using dynamic
buffers are usually completely unchecked and the Matroska muxer is no
exception to this.
The API has its part in this, because there is no documented way to
actually check for errors: The return value of both avio_get_dyn_buf()
as well as avio_close_dyn_buf() is only documented as "the length of
the byte buffer", so that using this to return errors would be an API
break.
Therefore this commit uses the only reliable way to check for errors
with avio_get_dyn_buf(): The AVIOContext's error flag. (This is one of
the advantages of avio_get_dyn_buf(): By not destroying the AVIOContext
it is possible to inspect this value.) Checking whether the size or the
pointer vanishes is not enough as it does not check for truncated output
(the dynamic buffer API is int based and so has to truncate the buffer
even when enough memory would be available; it's current actual limit is
even way below INT_MAX).

If one already has the contents of a master elements in a buffer of
known size, then writing a EBML master element is no different from
writing an EBML binary element. It is overtly complicated to use
start/end_ebml_master() as these functions first write an unkown-length
size field of the appropriate length, then write the buffer's contents,
followed by a seek to the length field to overwrite it with the real
size (obtained via avio_tell() although it was already known in
advance), followed by another seek to the previous position. Just use
put_ebml_binary() instead.

There is a good upper bound for the maximum length of the Colour master
element; it is therefore unnecessary to use a dynamic buffer for it.

The Matroska muxer updates several header elements when the output is
seekable; if unseekable, the buffer containing the contents of the element
is immediately freed after writing. Before this commit, there were three
places doing exactly the same: Checking whether the output is seekable
and calling the function that writes and frees or the function that
just writes the EBML master. This has been unified; adding SeekHead
entries for these elements has been unified, too.

Up until now, SeekEntries were already added before
start_ebml_master_crc32() was even called and before we were actually
sure that we really write the element the SeekHead references: After
all, we might also error out later; and given that the allocations
implicit in dynamic buffers should be checked, end_ebml_master_crc32()
will eventually have to return errors itself, so that it is the right
place to add SeekHead entries.
The earlier behaviour is of course a remnant of the time in which
start_ebml_master_crc32() really did output something, so that the
position before start_ebml_master_crc32() needed to be recorded.
Erroring out later is also not as dangerous as it seems because in
this case no SeekHead will be written (if it happened when writing
the header, the whole muxing process would abort; if it happened
when writing the trailer (when writing chapters not available initially),
writing the trailer would be aborted and no SeekHead containing the
bogus chapter entry would be written).
This commit does not change the way the SeekEntries are added for those
elements that are output preliminarily; this is so because the SeekHead
is written before those elements are finally output and doing it
otherwise would increase the amount of seeks.

The mapping of streams to the various variant streams to be created by
the HLS muxer is roughly as follows: Space and tab separate variant
stream group maps while the entries in each variant stream group map are
separated by ','.
The parsing process of each variant stream group proceeded as follows:
At first the number of occurences of "a:", "v:" and "s:" in each variant
stream group is calculated so that one can can allocate an array of
streams with this number of entries. Then each entry is checked and the
check for stream numbers was deficient: It did check that there is a
number beginning after the ":", but it did not check that the number
extends until the next "," (or until the end).
This means that an invalid variant stream group like v:0_v:1 will not be
rejected; the problem is that the variant stream in this example is
supposed to have two streams associated with it (because it contains two
"v:"), yet only one stream is actually associated with it (because there
is no ',' to start a second stream specifier). This discrepancy led to
segfaults (null pointer dereferencing) in the rest of the code (when the
nonexistent second stream associated to the variant stream was inspected).
Furthermore, this commit also removes an instance of using atoi() whose
behaviour on a range error is undefined.
Fixes ticket #8652.
