Rémi Denis-Courmont ad3586579f Provide C11-like atomics in <vlc_atomic.h> 
Since this constitutes mostly of macros and type definitions, it would
not fit too well in compat/. Most of the code would end up in
<vlc_fixups.h> rather than compat/. Moreover, I doubt that those
functions would be detected properly with AC_CHECK_FUNCS or
AC_REPLACE_FUNCS.

Anyway, VLC already has a separate header, and it will need to keep it
until <stdatomic.h> can be relied upon... many years from now.

README for the VLC media player
===============================

VLC is a popular libre and open source media player and multimedia engine,
used by a large number of individuals, professionals, companies and
institutions. Using open source technologies and libraries, VLC has been
ported to most computing platforms, including GNU/Linux, Windows, Mac OS X,
BSD, iOS and Android.
VLC can play most multimedia files, discs, streams, allows playback from
devices, and is able to convert to or stream in various formats.
The VideoLAN project was started at the university École Centrale Paris who
relicensed VLC under the GPLv2 license in February 2001. Since then, VLC has
been downloaded close to one billion times.
