[FFmpeg-cvslog] avcodec/decode: add an internal codec flag to signal a decoder sets all output frame properties

[James Almer]

ffmpeg | branch: master | James Almer <jamrial at gmail.com> | Fri Jun 18 18:57:38 2021 -0300| [7b9610ebd81a49af01e57652bae0bee88271e50c] | committer: James Almer

avcodec/decode: add an internal codec flag to signal a decoder sets all output frame properties

Decoders like cuviddec ignore and overwrite all the properties set by the generic
code as derived from AVCodecInternal.last_pkt_props. This flag ensures libavcodec
will not store and potentially queue input packets that ultimately will not be used.
