Niklas Haas 5aef513fb4 swscale/ops_backend: add reference backend basend on C templates
This will serve as a reference for the SIMD backends to come. That said,
with auto-vectorization enabled, the performance of this is not atrocious.
It easily beats the old C code and sometimes even the old SIMD.

In theory, we can dramatically speed it up by using GCC vectors instead of
arrays, but the performance gains from this are too dependent on exact GCC
versions and flags, so it practice it's not a substitute for a SIMD
implementation.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
