[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v2 3/6] avcodec: add API for automatic handling of icc profiles

[Niklas Haas <ffmpeg@haasn.xyz>]

From: Niklas Haas <git@haasn.dev>

This functionally already exists, but as pointed out in #9672 and #9673,
requiring users to manually include filters is clumsy, error-prone and
hard to use together with tools like ffplay.

To streamline ICC profile support, add a new AVCodecContext option to
globally enable reading and writing ICC profiles, automatically, for all
appropriate media types.

Note that this commit only includes the new API. The implementation is
split off to separate commits for readability.

   Add avio_vprintf(), similar to avio_printf() but allow to use it
   from within a function taking a variable argument list as input.
