I had not considered the case of custom callbacks, indeed.

I do not consider this a public API change because 0 was never
documented as a valid return value for a read_packet callback, while
AVERROR_EOF has been around for a long time.

But my goal is not to break existing code on purpose. Fortunately, there
is a rather simple workaround, I will try to implement it tomorrow.
Still, lacking a simple test case, I will not be able to test it.
