Some ALSA plugins take non-interleaved audio, but treat it as
interleaved, which results in various funny bugs. Users keep hitting
this issue, and it just doesn't seem worth the trouble.

Add an option that enables using native PulseAudio auto-updated timing
information, instead of the manual calculations added in mplayer2 times.
You can use --ao=pulse:no-latency-hacks to enable the new code. The code
is almost the same as the code that was removed with commit de435ed5,
but I didn't readd some bits I didn't understand. Likewise, the option
will disable the code added with that commit.
In my tests this seemed to work well, though the A/V sync display looks
funny when seeking.
The default is still the old behavior.
See issue #959.
"loadfile filename append-play" will now always append the file to the
playlist, and if nothing is playing yet, start playback. I don't want to
change the semantics of "append" mode, so a new mode is needed.
Probably fixes issue #950.
Useful for Windows stuff. Actually, ENCA support should catch this, but,
well, whatever, everyone seems to hate ENCA.
Detection with BOM is trivial, although it needs some hackery to
integrate it with the existing autodetection support. For one, change
the default value of --sub-codepage to make this easier.
Probably fixes issue #937 (the second part).
The MPlayer style syntax ("-mf fps=10:type=png") was removed a while
ago, and now only the flat variants ("--mf-fps=10" etc.) work.

This adds a thread to the demuxer which reads packets asynchronously.
It will do so until a configurable minimum packet queue size is
reached. (See options.rst additions.)
For now, the thread is disabled by default. There are some corner cases
that have to be fixed, such as fixing cache behavior with webradios.
Note that most interaction with the demuxer is still blocking, so if
e.g. network dies, the player will still freeze. But this change will
make it possible to remove most causes for freezing.
Most of the new code in demux.c actually consists of weird caches to
compensate for thread-safety issues (with the previously single-threaded
design), or to avoid blocking by having to wait on the demuxer thread.
Most of the changes in the player are due to the fact that we must not
access the source stream directly. the demuxer thread already accesses
it, and the stream stuff is not thread-safe.
For timeline stuff (like ordered chapters), we enable the thread for the
current segment only. We also clear its packet queue on seek, so that
the remaining (unconsumed) readahead buffer doesn't waste memory.
Keep in mind that insane subtitles (such as ASS typesetting muxed into
mkv files) will practically disable the readahead, because the total
queue size is considered when checking whether the minimum queue size
was reached.
The intention is to make it obvious which mpv releases certain changes
will apply to.
Also attempt to fix RST formatting of the list. This is not very proper,
but probably good enough.
These consult the vertical resolution, matching against 576 for
PAL and 480/486 for NTSC. The documentation has also been updated.

Notably, we now conform to SMPTE 428-1-2006 when decoding XYZ12 input,
and we can support rendering intents other than colorimetric when
converting between BT.709 and BT.2020, like with :srgb or :icc-profile.
This add support for reading primary information from lavc, categorized
into BT.601-525, BT.601-625, BT.709 and BT.2020; and passes it on to the
vo. In vo_opengl, we always generate the 3dlut against the wider BT.2020
and transform our source into this colorspace in the shader.
For remarks, pretty much see the manpage additions. Could help with
network streams that require too much seeking (maybe), or might be
extended to help with the use case of watching and downloading a file
at the same time.
In general, it might be a useless feature and could be removed again.
Also clarify the semantics.
It seems --idx didn't do anything. Possibly it used to change how the
now removed legacy demuxers like demux_avi used to behave. Or maybe
it was accidental.
--forceidx basically becomes --index=force. It's possible that new
index modes will be added in the future, so I'm keeping it
extensible, instead of e.g. creating --force-index.
Similar to previous commits.
This also renames --doubleclick-time to --input-doubleclick-time, and
--key-fifo-size to --input-key-fifo-size. We could keep the old names,
but these options are very obscure, and renaming them seems better for
consistency.
Additionally to removing the global variables, this makes the options
more uniform. --ssf-... becomes --sws-..., and --sws becomes --sws-
scaler. For --sws-scaler, use choices instead of magic integer values.
Pretty much nothing changes, but using -tv-scan with suboptions doesn't
work anymore (instead of "-tv-scan x" it's "-tv scan-x" now). Flat
options ("-tv-scan-x") stay compatible.
Convert all these commands to properties. (Except tv_last_channel, not
sure what to do with this.) Also, internally, don't access stream
details directly, but dispatch commands with stream ctrls.
Many of the new properties are a bit strange, because they're write-
only. Also remove some OSD output these commands produced, because I
couldn't be bothered to port these.
In general, this makes everything much cleaner, and will also make it
easier to e.g. move the demuxer to its own thread.
Don't bother updating input.conf, but changes.rst documents how old
commands map to the new ones.
Mostly untested, due to lack of hardware.
