[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH 24/25] avcodec/fraps: Use unchecked bitstream reader

The fraps decoder already checked for overreads manually (and errored
out in this scenario), yet it still enabled implicit checks, leading to
worse performance and more code size.

This commit disables the implicit bitstream reader checks. For the
sample [1] this improves performance from 195105896 to 155851561
decicycles for Clang 10 and from 222801887 to 168270467 decicycles when
compiled with GCC 9.3. These values are the average of 10 runs each
looping ten times over the input.
