This changes how request_channel_layout is handled for downmixed output, allows
printing libdcadec messages through av_log and adds support for setting some
potentially useful options.

Forcing 5.1 to 2.0 downmix by using undocumented libdcadec feature (specifying
both 2CH and 6CH flags together) is removed. With 2CH flag used alone, 2.0
downmix is output whenever possible, but if there are no custom downmixing
coefficients present, 5.1 downmix is output instead (which is always present
for 6.1 and 7.1 content).

This allows the caller to perform 5.1 to 2.0 downmix using whatever downmixing
parameters it likes, instead of using default libdcadec coefficients, which may
result in clipping depending on the stream.

Warnings about missing coefficients are now removed because no downmix is
forced.

Options to select LFE channel interpolation filter in bit-inexact mode and
force core only decoding are added. Unfortunately, they don't seem to apply
during probing, e.g.

    ffmpeg -c:a libdcadec -core_only:a 1 -i master-audio-71.dtshd -f null -

will intially report "Audio: dts (DTS-HD MA), 48000 Hz, 7.1, s32p (24 bit)",
and then switch to 5.1 core only output. I'm not sure how to fix this.

Setting "-err_detect explode" now causes libdcadec to abort decoding a frame on
non-fatal errors like core extension decoding failure.

foo86 (4):
  avcodec/libdcadec: fix request_channel_layout
  avcodec/libdcadec: implement logging callback
  avcodec/libdcadec: add some useful options
  avcodec/libdcadec: honor -err_detect option
