avcodec/wnv1: Use LE bitstream reader, avoid copying packet, fix memleak
The Winnov WNV1 format is designed for a little-endian bitstream reader; yet our decoder reversed every byte bitwise (in a buffer only allocated for this purpose) to use a big-endian bitstream reader. This commit stops this. Two things needed to be done to achieve this: The codes in the table used to initialize a VLC reader needed to be reversed bitwise (when initializing a VLC in LE mode, it is expected that the first bit to be read is in the least significant bit; with BE codes the first bit to be read is the most significant bit of the code) and the following expression needed to be adapted: ff_reverse[get_bits(&w->gb, 8 - w->shift)] But this is easy: When only the bits read are reversed, they coincide with what a little-endian bitstream reader reads that reads the original, not-reversed data. But ff_reverse always reverses the full eight bits and this also performs a shift by (8 - (8 - w->shift)) on top of reversing the bits read. So the above line needs to be changed to get_bits(&w->gb, 8 - w->shift) << w->shift and this also shows why the variable shift is named the way it is. Finally, this also fixes a hypothetical memleak: For gigantic packets, initializing a GetBitContext can fail and in this case, the buffer containing the reversed data would leak.
