[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] libavutil/log: Support for logging timestamps in the log

[Prakash]

Logging timestamps is a basic functionality any logging
framework/infrastructure should support.
If I am using ffmpeg as a binary then I would need this functionality built
in.
Agree that the code in log.c can definitely be simplified but didn't want
to make any changes with potential for breaking the log output.
