[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] flac: add GIF image support

The FLAC specification requires GIF images to contain their number of
colors. While I can't find a specific reference to that effect, I'm
assuming that's why GIF images were previously unsupported. This was
implemented by just writing AVPALETTE_COUNT for paletted images.
