What do you think about adding a generic api function to append to an
existing entry instead of replacing it?  I'm thinking in terms of
formats like vorbiscomment which explicitly allow duplicate entries for
the same key.  Something like:

int av_metadata_append(AVMetadata **pm, const char *key, const char
*value, const char *separator);
