For the record, both libx264 and libx265 wrappers essentially have the
UNSPECIFIED check. For x265 I guess it was due to
bEnableColorDescriptionPresentFlag having to be set by the API caller
as well, while for x264 this logic was added in
48d39c8786d2a1a36258d8e442602729eef0474c , I wonder if due to x264
having an initial default value in the struct, and checking against
that for whether a user set that value or not. Or maybe it was just
cargo culted from somewhere else?

So if kvazaar has no initial value there in those values of the struct
that it uses for checking if a value was set, then the ifs are indeed
unnecessary.
