[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v3 1/2] lavf/mpegenc: fix ever-growing fifo size since the new API

[Nicolas Gaullier]

The older av_fifo_realloc2 implemented an auto grow that
should be ported as such in the new API.

This patch introduces a limitation in the fifo buffer size.
The default is set to 128MB and may be overriden by a new user option.
The amount of memory allocated depends on multiple factors, including
the number of audio streams.
A worst case scenario is where an out-of-spec high video bitrate is
combined with numerous low bitrate audios.

Fix regressing since ea511196a6c85eb433e10cdbecb0b2c722faf20d
