[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v3 00/12] encoder AVCodecContext configuration side data

Differences to v2:
1. rebased on top of current master
2. addition of external encoder tests as the attached side data can now be
   parsed from all formats after the movement of side data from being HEVC
   specific to the common h2645 SEI parsing.
3. Various miscellaneous fixups/updates.

This patch set I've now been working for a while since I felt like it was weird
we couldn't pass through information such as static HDR metadata to encoders
from decoded input. This initial version adds the necessary framework, as well
as adds static HDR metadata support for libsvtav1, libx264 as well as libx265
wrappers.

An alternative to this would be to make encoders only properly initialize when
they receive the first AVFrame, but that seems to be a bigger, nastier change
than introducing an AVFrameSideDataSet in avctx as everything seems to
presume that extradata etc are available after opening the encoder.

Note: Any opinions on whether FFCodec or AVCodec should have
      handled_side_data list, so that if format specific generic logic is
      added, it could be checked whether the codec itself handles this side
      data? This could also be utilized to list handled side data from f.ex.
      `ffmpeg -h encoder=libsvtav1`.
