This supports retrieving the device from a provided hw_frames_ctx, and automatically creating a hw_frames_ctx if hw_device_ctx is set. The old API is not deprecated yet. The user can still use av_vdpau_bind_context() (with or without setting hw_frames_ctx), or use the API before that by allocating and setting hwaccel_context manually. Cherry-picked from Libav commit 1a7ddba5. (Adds missing APIchanges entry to the Libav version.) Reviewed-by: Mark Thompson <sw@jkqxz.net>
