[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 4/4] avcodec/get_bits: Remove GetBitContext.buffer_end

From: Andreas Rheinhardt <andreas.rheinhardt at outlook.com>

It is unused. Furthermore, this automatically fixes the issue
that init_get_bits() failure would lead to NULL + 0 (when
setting buffer_end) which is UB before C23. This happened
in the fic-avi and fic-avi-skip_cursor FATE-tests.

This saved 7296B of .text here.
