This is a work in progress, we still don't have a working replacement
for this, you can continue to use this.

av_dump_format()

Check the corresponding avio_ function in avio.h.

Please consider to send a patch or file an issue regarding the missing
deprecation information. Also deprecated function will stay in the
source for a while (typically until the next bump at least) so there
is no strict need to replace them at the moment.
