Because having two differents events for the same objective is way too
confusing (libvlc_MediaParsedStatus was recently added by me).
libvlc_MediaParsedCharged is now always sent after a call to
libvlc_media_parse_*() (this was not the case if the pre-parsing was skipped).
The core vlc_InputItemPreparsedChanged event is now only attached from the
media player. This allows the libvlc_MediaParsedCharged event to be sent when a
media is parsed from a media player.
/!\ Behavior change in libvlc API /!\
The libvlc_event_t.u.media_parsed_changed.new_status value changed, this is now
a libvlc_media_parsed_status_t. Before this patch, this value was always set to
true, even in case of parse failure/skipped. Now this value can be skipped (1),
failed (2) or done (3). There should be no changes for users that were checking
if new_status was true, since this events was called for these 3 cases (that
are all > 0).
In real use, there are few (typically only zero or one) listeners per
event type. In this case, the linear search through the listener groups
was actually slower than the linear search through the whole list of
listeners: it required one iteration per event type, even for event
types with no listeners.
(Note: using a hash table over the event type would make a lot more
sense as an optimization.)
The distinction was rather vain, as the inner lock was almost never
held without the outer lock. The only case was adding an event callback
(but _not_ removing one). On the other hand, the distinction required
extra heap manipulations and memory copying for each event.
This exposes (audio) policy cork events to LibVLC applications. The
intended usage is for applications to pause/resume playback.
We decided against pausing and resuming automatically as it would most
likely confuse the playback state machine of existing applications. By
default, the OS decides might either mute or duck the audio stream.

This might suppress some warnings (and very slightly reduce code size)
when assertions are disabled. Not that I particularly like to create
VLC-specific macros.
Re-license almost all of libVLC and libVLCcore to LGPLv2.1+
This move was authorized by the developers, either:
- by e-mail,
- by vote at the VideoLAN Dev Days 2011,
- on the license website,
- in a contract, oral or written.
No objection was raised, so far.

It is possible, that some minor piece of code was badly tracked, for
some reasons (SVN, mainly) or that some small developers did not answer.
However, as an "œuvre collective", defined as in "CPI 113-2 alinéa 3",
and seeing "Cour. Cass. 17 Mai 1978", and seeing that the editor and
the very vast majority of developers have agreed (> 99.99% of the code,
> 99% of developers), we are fine here.
Properly take the recursive event_sending_lock when looking for listener to
send the event.
Ensure that there will be no event dispatch after vlc_event_detach().
Also, fix a bug in libvlc_event where removing an event handler from an event
callback would lead to a crash.
