[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 02/35] lavu/fifo: make the contents of AVFifoBuffer private on next major bump

[Anton Khirnov <anton@khirnov.net>]

There should be no good reason for the callers to access any of its
contents.

Define a new type for the internal struct that currently matches
AVFifoBuffer. This will allow adding new private fields without waiting
for the major bump and will be useful in the following commits.

Unfortunately AVFifoBuffer fields cannot be marked as deprecated because
it would trigger a warning wherever fifo.h is #included, due to
inlined av_fifo_peek2().
