Adding that field was documented there originally.
It came in as a merge from libav in 8688d3a, and should have been merged
to the end of the struct there.
Technically it was an ABI break, but nothing seems to be affected by it.

So I'm not exactly sure what to do about it.
Moving it to the end now will break ffmpeg/ffplay built from 3.1.0 or
current master when using libraries from 3.1.1 or post-merge master.

It might be better to fix this now before 3.1 gains wider adoption,
maybe releasing 3.1.1 or even 3.1.0.1 a bit ahead of schedule.

Does it still need an APIChanges entry, even though the addition was
already documented there and this is an ABI-Only change?
