Maybe this could be called avio_open3() instead, superseding avio_open2()
which would in turn become deprecated.

Seeing how avio_open2() with this patch becomes just a wrapper for the new
function with an empty whitelist argument, it can easily be introduced as
a replacement. It would encourage people to update their code and consider
putting this feature to use.
