[FFmpeg-devel] [RFC][PATCH 1/4] avutil/frame: add an internal field to store the size of AVFrame

[James Almer <jamrial@gmail.com>]

This is unfortunately needed to remove (or reduce the awfulness) of certain
modules violating the AVFrame API and using sizeof(AVFrame).
With this, the sizeof(AVFrame) value of the libavutil loaded at runtime can be
used instead of the compile time value of whatever library included frame.h

This is sucks, but at least less so than the current situation.

I don't see wrapped_avframe going away anytime soon, so something must be done,
and last time i tried to change how the packets are generated my approach was
shut down, so here's another attempt.
