[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v2 0/2] 32bps FLAC patches

Recently libFLAC gained the ability (not in any released version yet
though) to create FLAC files containing 32-bit int PCM samples. To
keep complexity reasonable, the choice was made to limit residuals
to 32-bit integers, which the encoder must make sure of. In case
the encoder cannot find any predictor of which the residuals fit
this limit, it must default to using a verbatim subframe. Tests have
shown that this does not happen often (<0.1% of subframes on a
music corpus of various styles). See also discussion here:
https://github.com/ietf-wg-cellar/flac-specification/pull/148

These two patches implement decoding and encoding following this
format. The decoding patch has been send in for review earlier,
but didn't get any feedback yet, so I'm sending it in again,
unchanged, this time with a patch for encoding too.

Changes since v1:
fix copy-paste error in encoder, several invocations of
lpc_encode_choose_datapath used wrong parameters, making FATE fail as
compression was less than it should be
