Support Dolby Vision profile 8.1, 8.2, 8.4, 10.1, 10.4 signaling in HLS
and DASH.
Adds new option `--use_dovi_supplemental_codecs` (off by default) to use
SUPPLEMENTAL-CODECS in HLS and `scte214:supplementalCodecs` and
`scte214:supplementalProfiles` for DASH.
To maintain compatibility with existing players the current behavior of
using two entries in the manifest remains the default. This will be
changed in a future version where `use_dovi_supplemental_codecs` will
become on by default.
Adds Dolby Vision compatible brands, 'db1p', 'db2g', 'db4g', 'db4h',
'dby1' based on https://mp4ra.org/#/brands

Set the start number in representation to the segment index that is sent by muxer.
With this enhancement, you can now specify the initial sequence number
to be used on the generated segments when calling the packager.
With the old implementation, it was always starting with "1".

adds an optional `--hls_start_time_offset` parameter, that, when
used, adds `EXT-X-START` tags to the HLS media playlists.
The EXT-X-START tag allows to specify the location where the player
starts playing, either from start (positive value) or from end (negative
value).
This is especially useful in case of livestreams where this tag can be
used to set the target latency of the playback.
Reference: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8216#section-4.3.5.2
The RFC says, that the `EXT-X-START` tag could also be added to the
master playlist, but my tests have shown that most players only respect
it when it's in the media playlists.

This work was done over ~80 individual commits in the `cmake` branch,
which are now being merged back into `main`. As a roll-up commit, it is
too big to be reviewable, but each change was reviewed individually in
context of the `cmake` branch. After this, the `cmake` branch will be
renamed `cmake-porting-history` and preserved.

This converts all time parameters to signed, finishing a cleanup that
was started in 2018 in b4256bf0. This changes the type of:
- timestamps
- PTS specifically
- timestamp offsets
- timescales
- durations
This excludes:
- MP4 box definitions
- DTS specifically
This is meant to address signed/unsigned conversion issues on arm64
that caused some test cases to fail.

Now text-based WebVTT also uses the generic media pipeline. This
converts the WebVttTextOutputHandler to a WebVttMuxer to be more
consistent with the other muxer types.
This also allows choosing between single-segment text and multi-segment.
Before, we would generate both and use single-segment for DASH and
multi-segment for HLS; but now you can choose between either and either
are supported in both DASH and HLS.

HLS uses the EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE tag at the start of a live playlist in
order to specify the first segment sequence number. This is because any
live playlist have a limited number of segments, and they also keep
updating with new segments while removing old ones. When a player refreshes
the playlist, this information is important for keeping track of segments
positions.
When the packager starts, it naturally starts this count from zero. However,
there are many situations where the packager may be restarted, without this
meaning starting this value from zero (but continuing a previous sequence).
The most common situations are problems in the encoder feeding the packager.
With those cases in mind, this parameter allows to set the initial
EXT-X-MEDIA-SEQUENCE value. This way, it's possible to continue the sequence
number from previous packager run.
Closes#691.
Calculate FRAME-RATE from sample duration as in the DASH solution.
Right now calculated frame-rate may not be accurate in some scenarios,
so we avoid setting the attribute in HLS unless it is more than 30
fps. We will set it unconditionally once it is fixed.

We used to use the target segment duration provided by the user.
Unfortunately that does not work for iframe only playlist which
the target duration is effectively equal to the GOP duration.
In the new approach, we estimate the target duration from the initial

Apple's specification does not recommend video formats with the

Segment start,end time was used previously, which could result in
problems if there are discontinuity in the streams. E.g. if the
stream has timestamp, 10000, 10001, 10002 and then next segment
comes in with timestamp 1. With the previous logic, all the segments
would remain in the time shift buffer until after 10000 segments
even with a small time shift buffer depth of 10.
This could also happen when timestamp wraps around, which could
happen during long time of live streaming.
This change will also be useful to support multi-period live DASH.

The file_name fields will be used to solely indicate file paths on the
designated file system, and they are used to do normal file operations,
including file creation, file updating and file removal if needed;
added new xxx_url fields, for the URLs that should appear on DASH
manifest or HLS playlists.
xxx_url are the URIs of the media in the manifest. The fields are
converted from file_name fields but adjusted to be relative to DASH
manifest path or HLS playlist path, optionally with base_url prepended.
Previously the file_name fields are converted in place to indicate
URLs when passing to manifest / playlist builders. The original file
names were lost, which made it difficult to remove files outside of
live window.
Now that the input file names are preserved. File system APIs can
operate on the original file names while manifest / playlist generation
functions can operate on URLs.
