ffmpeg | branch: release/0.8 | Ronald S. Bultje <rsbultje at gmail.com> | Tue Mar 13 16:26:44 2012 -0700| [8b819fd9d3f363483559a3e9aeb8b78acba47bb7] | committer: Reinhard Tartler

h264: stricter reference limit enforcement.

Progressive images can have only 16 references, error out if there are
more, since the data is almost certainly corrupt, and the invalid value
will lead to random crashes or invalid writes later on.
