[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 1/3] avformat/url: fix logic for removing ".." path components

[Josef Zlomek]

Fixes: 8814

The logic for removing ".." path components and their corresponding
upper directories was reworked.

Now, the function trim_double_dot_url splits the path by "/" into
components, and processes the components one ny one:
- if the component is "..", the last path component in tmp_path is removed
- if the component is not empty, it is added to tmp_path

The duplicate logic was removed from ff_make_absolute_url.
