Re-license almost all the playback modules to LGPLv2.1+ with
authorization from their respective contributors (230+)
This includes:
- access, codec, packetizers, demux
- audio filters, audio mixers, audio output
- video filters, video chroma, video output
- text renderers
- XML parser
- ARM NEON and SSE2 optimisations (mostly for chromas and filters)
Some modules are not concerned:
- BDA and DShow access modules because Manol Manolov is AWOL
- Real RTSP, because it is derived from Xine
- x264 and t140 because they are encoders only
- DLL Loader, because it is derived from MPlayer
- DTS packetizer, because Jon Lech Johansen is AWOL
- Shine and WMAfixed, because they are derived from Rockbox
- Real demuxer, as it is derived from MPlayer and Wang Bo is AWOL
- MPC demuxer, as Yavor Doganov is AWOL
- Tivo demuxer, because it is derived from an MPlayer fork
- Playlist demuxer, (WPL and ZPL parts missing), because suheaven is AWOL
- iOS audio output and video display, because author refuses the license change
- Equalizer and compressor, because Ronald Wright is AWOL
- Mono, Headphone and Dolby, because author refuses the license change
- hqdn3d and yadif, because they are from MPlayer/libavfilter
- remoteosd, because it derives from RealVNC code
- MMX optimisations, because Ollie Lho, from SiS, is AWOL
- Rotate, because it depends on GPL motion
Nota Bene:
- Some modules depend on GPL-only libraries, a LGPL module does not mean
that the resulting binary module will be LGPL.
Libraries affected would include liba52, libdvdcss, libdvdnav, libdvdread,
faad2, libdca, libmad, libmpeg2, libpostproc, SRC, sid, zvbi and probably others.
300 743 v1.2.1 mentionned '1111 1111', but 1.3.1 mentions '11 1111' only.
I believe it is a typo, (maybe, maybe not) but the spec is out, so people
will write encoders following it.
So, we do not look at the 2 bits of strong weight.
Changing the choice list of a configuration item is not thread-safe.
Plus it does not make much sense to use a strict choice list if the
choices change dynamically.
If ever needed, we can invent a suggestions list system later, just
like we already do for SD plugins enumeration.
My interpretation of ETSI EN 300 743 is that the region_fill_flag of a region
composition segment should not cause the region to be filled when the containing
page composition segment has its' page_state variable set to 0 (page update).

The module did not mark the subtitles it produces with "b_subtitle == true",
which causes them to be handled as OSD, and thus allowing them to become
out of sync unless video was streamed in real time...

I removed:
i_x/i_y: redondant with region i_x/i_y. Now a subpicture always represent the
whole video.
i_flags: unused anywhere in the core.
I may have broken a few video filters (osdmenu mainly). I will fix it if you
report the problem and the way to reproduce it.
