Ok, take two. Splitted in three patches.

I'm a bit doubtful about the lavf-stuff. As it is right now it will
only grab the extra info if it needs to open the codec for other
purposes during av_find_stream_info(). OTOH we don't want to
open it at all times. Perhaps another argument to av_find_stream_info()
would do. But that would cause API breakage.

Still I think it would be nice to get this type of information with
ffmpeg. And I know for sure that there are users out there that is
interested in this as well.

Ideas welcome...
