[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] Fix missing used attribute for inline assembly variables

Variables used in inline assembly need to be marked with attribute((used)).
Static constants already were, via the define of DECLARE_ASM_CONST.
But DECLARE_ALIGNED does not add this attribute, and some of the variables
defined with it are const only used in inline assembly, and therefore
appeared dead.

This change makes FFMPEG linkable with Clang's ThinLTO.
