[FFmpeg-cvslog] avcodec/gifenc: Add global_palette option

[Derek Buitenhuis]

ffmpeg | branch: master | Derek Buitenhuis <derek.buitenhuis at gmail.com> | Sat Feb 20 17:22:51 2021 +0000| [5f2804aba71dbf4833a3cc5e7b30e8351cd9037a] | committer: Derek Buitenhuis

avcodec/gifenc: Add global_palette option

This option will disable the writing of the global palette in global
GIF header if it is set to 0, causing only the frame-level palette
to ever be written.

This will be useful later on when further frame-level palette
optimizations are introduced.

The default is 1, which maintains current default behavior.
