The attached patch places the five enums in AVFilterBufferRefVideoProps, 
initializes them in vsrc_buffer:init() and copies them to each frame in 
vsrc_buffer:request_frame() and avfilter_default_get_video_buffer(). I 
have run it through `make test' with no errors.

One downside to placing the information in AVFilterBufferRefVideoProps 
is that it is not available to the `init' or `config_props' filter 
functions, you don't really understand the input format until the first 
frame is received.  I can live with this in a DrawText filter by 
delaying setup until the first call to `start_frame', but it would be 
much cleaner to have it available in `config_props'.  Would it be 
reasonable to include:

AVFilterBufferRefVideoProps * filterBRVideoProps;

and maybe (thinking ahead):

AVFilterBufferRefAudioProps * filterBRAudioProps;

in AVFilterLInk?  Note that a DrawText filter also needs pixel_aspect to 
properly set up; and I suspect that vf_scale will need to use 
color_range in its config_props routine now that PIX_FMT_YUVJ444P etc. 
have been deprecated in favor of PIX_FMT_YUV444P and setting color_range.

Cheers!
