[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH] cbs_mpeg2: Fix parsing of slice headers

1. The extra information in slice headers was parsed incorrectly:
In the first reading pass to derive the length of the extra information,
one should look at bits n, n + 9, n + 18, ... and check whether they
equal one (further extra information) or zero (end of extra information),
but instead bits n, n + 8, n + 16, ... were inspected. The second pass
of reading (where the length is already known and the bytes between the
length-determining bits are copied into a buffer) did not record what
was in bits n, n + 9, n + 18, ..., presuming they equal one. And during
writing, the bytes in the buffer are interleaved with set bits and
written. This means that if the detected length of the extra information
was greater than the real length, the output was corrupted. Fortunately
no sample is known that made use of this mechanism: The extra information
in slices is still marked as reserved in the specifications. cbs_mpeg2
is now ready in case this changes.

2. Furthermore, the buffer is now padded and slightly different, but
very similar code for reading resp. writing has been replaced by code
used for both. This was made possible by a new macro, the equivalent
to cbs_h2645's fixed().

3. These changes also made it possible to remove the extra_bit_slice
element from the MPEG2RawSliceHeader structure. Said element was always
zero except when the detected length of the extra information was less
than the real length.

There was no merge conflict for me for this commit during the rebase
in reply to James' request despite there being changes in the immediate
vicinity to the changes in this patch. But I don't know if the patch
would apply cleanly to everyone else's repo as my repo contained the
whole history which might have been used to apply the commit.
