AVCodecContext.side_data_only_packets

Encoding only and set by default. Allow encoders to output packets that do not contain any encoded data, only side data.

Some encoders need to output such packets, e.g. to update some stream parameters at the end of encoding.

@deprecated this field disables the default behaviour and it is kept only for compatibility.
