[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Add 32 bit-per-sample capability to FLAC encoder

This commit makes ffmpeg create FLAC files with up to 32 bits-per-sample,
up from the previous limit of 24 bit. This is because of a feature request
to RAWcooked, apparently the archiving community has a need for storing
files with 32-bit integer audio samples.

See https://github.com/MediaArea/RAWcooked/issues/356

Care has been taken to create files that are compatible with existing
decoders, which were never tested with such files. Stereo decorrelation
is disabled on 32 bit-per-sample, because a side channel would need
33 bit-per-sample, causing problems in existing decoders using 32 bit
integers. Also, only LPC encoding is enabled, because decoders capable
of processing 24-bit files already use 64-bit processing for LPC, but
not for fixed subframes.

Additionally, on encoding checks are added making certain that no
prediction overflows 32 bit signed integer and no residual is larger
than 2^30 or smaller than -1*2^30, because most decoders (including ffmpeg)
convert the unsigned folded representation to a signed one before dividing
by two (part of the unfolding).

Testing has been done with CDDA upsampled to 32 bit-per-sample files with
SoX, using a hilbert filter to fill the added 16 bits. Also a
32 bit-per-sample file was generated with SoX synth filter.

ffmpeg has been unintentionally forward-compatible with this change since
commit c720b9ce98, committed in May 2015. ffmpeg n2.7 was the first release
containing this commit. libFLAC is forward-compatible since release 1.2.1
(September 2007), the flac command line tool however blocks 32-bit files
out of caution, it having been untested until now.
