There is no need for something special, it is an universal fact of
programming that if several redundant pieces of information are supposed
to be in sync, unless there are strong systems to keep them in sync,
they will eventually get out of sync because of a code inconsistency.

Avoiding redundancy is one of the most important principles of code
hygiene.

This is why I oppose this change, and this is why I propose to remove
the time_base field in AVPacket.
