This unclutters the top-level directory and groups related files together.

It provides the following features:
 * verify correctness by comparing output to the C version.
 * detect failure to save and restore clobbered callee-saved registers.
 * detect 32-bit parameters being used as if they were 64-bit in x86-64
   (the upper halves are not guaranteed to be zero - but in practice
   they very often are, which makes those bugs hard to spot otherwise).
 * easy benchmarking.

Compile by running 'make checkasm'.
Execute by running 'tests/checkasm/checkasm'.

Optional arguments are '--bench' to run benchmarks for all functions,
'--bench=<pattern>' to run benchmarks for all functions that starts with
<pattern>, and '<integer>' to seed the PRNG for reproducible results.

Contains unit tests for most h264pred functions to get started, more tests
can be added afterwards using those as a reference.

Loosely based on code from x264. Currently only supports x86 and x86-64,
but additional architectures shouldn't be too much of an obstacle to add.

Note that functions with floating point parameters or floating point
return values are not supported. Some compiler-specific features or
preprocessor hacks would likely be required to add support for that.

This returns something like "v12_dev0-1332-g333a27c". This is much more
useful than the individual library versions, of which there are too
many, and which are very hard to map back to releases or git commits.

This allows running all the tests individually and/or in parallel.

It has not been properly maintained for years and there is little hope
of that changing in the future.
It appears simpler to write a new replacement from scratch than
unbreaking it.

The gcov/lcov are a common toolchain for visualizing code coverage with
the GNU/Toolchain. The documentation and implementation of this
integration was heavily inspired from the blog entry by Mike Melanson:
http://multimedia.cx/eggs/using-lcov-with-ffmpeg/

exp files are created in every build and contain export information
of the libraries. Both pdb and ilk are created during debug builds,
and contain linking and debug information used by MSVC.

Many compilers need special flags to compile *.h files as regular
source code, if they will do so at all.  Rather than hoping all
compilers will have such a flag and adding mappings for it, create
wrapper .c files for test building single headers.

This allows using the regular rule for compiling C files without the
need for special flags, and it also provides proper dependency tracking
for these objects.

This tool uses lavfi internal symbols not accessible in shared
libraries.  TESTPROGS are linked statically to allow them use of
library internals not normally exported.

This avoids confusion from patterns meant to only match at the top
level matching files in subdirectories.

Ignoring all files that start with the name of a library matches some
files that are not generated.  So replace libfoo/libfoo* with patterns
for static and shared libraries, pkg-config and version files.

This library does not fit into Libav as a whole and its code is just a
maintenance burden.  Furthermore it is now available as an external project,
which completely obviates any reason to keep it around.

It will be further developed with a few incompatible changes.

ffmpeg.c will stay as is for some time, so any scripts using it won't be
broken.
