This fixes decoding of H264 video samples with SPS and PPS changes. See for example https://s3.amazonaws.com/tmm1/videotoolbox/spschange.ts, which previously stalled the decoder and failed to produce any new frames after the SPS change. Also see https://s3.amazonaws.com/tmm1/videotoolbox/ppschange.ts, which uses multiple PPS and would previously cause VT decode failures. If the VideoToolbox session needs to be restarted, and videotoolbox_start() fails for some reason (for instance, if the video is interlaced and the decoder is running on iOS), avcodec will return AVERROR_EXTERNAL. This can be used by the API user to switch to another decoder. Signed-off-by: Aman Gupta <aman@tmm1.net>
