>From SMPTE RDD 5-2006, the grain seed is to be computed from the
following definition of `pic_offset`:

> When decoding H.264 | MPEG-4 AVC bitstreams, pic_offset is defined as
> follows:
>   - pic_offset = PicOrderCnt(CurrPic) + (PicOrderCnt_offset << 5)
> where:
>   - PicOrderCnt(CurrPic) is the picture order count of the current frame,
>     which shall be derived from [the video stream].
>
>   - PicOrderCnt_offset is set to idr_pic_id on IDR frames. idr_pic_id
>     shall be read from the slice header of [the video stream]. On non-IDR I
>     frames, PicOrderCnt_offset is set to 0. A frame shall be classified as I
>     frame when all its slices are I slices, which may be optionally
>     designated by setting primary_pic_type to 0 in the access delimiter NAL
>     unit. Otherwise, PicOrderCnt_offset it not changed. PicOrderCnt_offset is
>     updated in decoding order.

To forward this information correctly, we need to make a number of
annoying changes to h264_slice:

- We need to keep track of the `PicOrderCnt_offset`, and update it to
  the decoded value of `idr_pic_id` on IDR frames.
- We need to keep track of whether or not a frame contained any non-I
  slices, so we can detect the "non-IDR I frame" condition, and reset
  `PicOrderCnt_offset` back to 0. This is *not* synonymous with existing
  fields such as `pic->f->pict_type` because that is somehow only set
  based on the first slice in a frame, so we introduce a new field
  `picture_intra_only` which is set to 0 when decoding any non-I slice.
- We need to compute this derived `pic_offset` at the *end* of the
  frame, rather than at the beginning (where the SEI is decoded/set),
  because it now depends on the types of the slices present in the same
  frame.

If there's a less ugly way to accomplish the above, I don't see it.
Suggestions welcome(tm).
