[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 2/3] dnn: change .model file format to put layer number at the end of file

[Guo, Yejun]

currently, the layer number is at the beginning of the .model file,
so we have to scan twice in python script, the first scan to get the
layer number. Only one scan needed after put the layer number at the
end of .model file.
