It's currently used in decode.c in libavcodec, and on three devices in 
libavdevice, hence the avpriv_ implementation.

It's also reimplemented in ffplay, which could be ported to this API if 
we add some sort of opaque user field to be attached to each packet in 
the list.
ffplay is a library user, so there's clearly interest for a packet queue 
outside of libav*.
