I have three API changes/additions/deprecations on the ml, some for
months now, that i want in 4.4 in order for them to be present in the
last release using the current major library versions. This is so users
have a good amount of time to notice them and adapt their code.
It's not be as nice if they start noticing any new deprecations
introduced today in a release made several months from now.
These are "deprecate av_init_packet() and sizeof(AVPacket) as part of
the ABI", "avutil/buffer: change public function and struct size
parameter types to size_t", and "avcodec: add a get_encoder_buffer()
callback to AVCodecContext".
The first two still need to be LGTM's. The latter was LGTM' by Lynne,
but I'm still waiting for Mark to give his.
