>>> 1. Since bd90a2ec, mpeg4_unpack_bframes caches whole packets instead of
>>> just the pointer to the buffer and the buffer's size in order to be able
>>> to make use of refcounting to avoid copying of data; this unfortunately
>>> introduced copies of packet structures and side data (if existing),
>>> although the only fields that are needed are the buffer-related ones
>>> (data, size and buf). This can be changed without compromising the
>>> advantages of refcounting by storing a reference to the buffer.
>>>
>>> 2. This change also makes it easy to use only one packet throughout
>>> so that an allocation and free of an AVPacket structure per filtered
>>> packet can be saved by switching to ff_bsf_get_packet_ref.
>>>
>>> 3. Furthermore, this commit also fixes a memleak introduced in bd90a2ec:
>>> If a stored b_frame with side data was used for a later frame, the side
>>> data would leak when the input frame's properties were copied into the
>>> output frame.
