Explicitly identify decoder/encoder wrappers with a common name. This
saves API users from guessing by the name suffix. For example, they
don't have to guess that "h264_qsv" is the h264 QSV implementation, and
instead they can just check the AVCodec .codec and .wrapper_name fields.
Explicitly mark AVCodec entries that are hardware decoders or most
likely hardware decoders with new AV_CODEC_CAPs. The purpose is allowing
API users listing hardware decoders in a more generic way. The proposed
AVCodecHWConfig does not provide this information fully, because it's
concerned with decoder configuration, not information about the fact
whether the hardware is used or not.
AV_CODEC_CAP_HYBRID exists specifically for QSV, which can have software
implementations in case the hardware is not capable.
Based on a patch by Philip Langdale <philipl@overt.org>.
Merges Libav commit 47687a2f8aca3f65b6fdd117b1cb66a7409a7fd1.
This improves behaviour with drivers which do not support packed
headers, such as AMD VCE on mesa/gallium.
(cherry picked from commit 892bbbcdc171ff0d08d69636a240ffb95f54243c)
This allows better checking of capabilities and will make it easier
to add more functionality later.
It also commonises some duplicated code around rate control setup
and adds more comments explaining the internals.

These are all trivial to merge.
