lavc: Deprecate AVPicture structure and related functions
Deprecation flag on AVPicture struct replaced by a comment, as it causes
excess deprecation warnings for every include of avcodec.h
Merged-by: Hendrik Leppkes <h.leppkes@gmail.com>
This structure served as a bridge between data pointers and frames,
but it suffers from several limitations:
- it is not refcounted and data must be copied to every time
- it cannot be expanded without ABI break due to being used on the stack
- its functions are just wrappers to imgutils which add a layer of
unneeded indirection, and maintenance burden
- it allows hacks like embedding uncompressed data in packets
- its use is often confusing to our users
AVFrame provides a much better API, and, if a full blown frame is not
needed, it is just as simple and more straightfoward to use data and
linesize arrays directly.

Move the lavc/imgconvert functions and rename them as follows:
avpicture_get_size -> av_image_get_buffer_size()
avpicture_fill -> av_image_fill_arrays()
avpicture_layout -> av_image_copy_to_buffer()
The new functions have an align parameter, which allows to define the
linesize alignment assumed in the buffer (which is set or read).
The names of the functions are consistent with the lavu/samples API
(av_samples_get_buffer_size(), av_samples_fill_arrays()).
A redundant check has been dropped from av_image_fill_arrays().

When called from the v4l2 input device, pix_fmt can be
AV_PIX_FMT_NONE (for jpeg formats). Before 50ba57e0, this wasn't
an issue for avpicture_get_size, but after that commit, this
lead to crashes.
