The Main profile of AAC is... terrible.
It enables the use of delta coding across coefficients of two frames
to try to increase compression, and it enabled one more pole for TNS
filters.
What the AAC authors failed to take into account were basic
mathematics, as MDCT leakage (e.g. the spread of each frequency when
represented in a discrete spectrum) is significant in most audio codecs.
This leads to huge variations between each frame, basically rendering
prediction completely pointless.
In fact, enabling AAC-Main prediction does not, in general, even recoup
the metadata losses from signalling the profile and prediction properties
in the first place. So you lose efficiency by using AAC Main.
The rumor is that it was put in the AAC spec for patent reasons, though
patent-wise, it has about as much use as a patent for a bicycle designed
for use by snakes.
The only other thing AAC Main changes is it permits 3-pole TNS filters.
When AAC's bands are absolutely tiny, except for very high frequency bands,
where you're likely to use PNS instead.
Just get rid of it.
Add external encoder VVenC for H266/VVC encoding.
Register new encoder libvvenc.
Add libvvenc to wrap the vvenc interface.
libvvenc implements encoder option: preset,qp,qpa,period,
passlogfile,stats,vvenc-params,level,tier.
Enable encoder by adding --enable-libvvenc in configure step.

Drop reference to constants removed in 94eed68ace.
In particular, rename me_method to me_quality and add description for
supported values.
Address trac issue:

In particular, clarify that it can either be set as a field of
AVCodecContext or as an x264 option, using a different specification.

Add skip_frame support to qsvenc. Use per-frame metadata
"qsv_skip_frame" to control it. skip_frame option defines the behavior
of qsv_skip_frame.
no_skip: Frame skipping is disabled.
insert_dummy: Encoder inserts into bitstream frame where all macroblocks
are encoded as skipped.
insert_nothing: Similar to insert_dummy, but encoder inserts nothing.
The skipped frames are still used in brc. For example, gop still include
skipped frames, and the frames after skipped frames will be larger in
size.
brc_only: skip_frame metadata indicates the number of missed frames
before the current frame.

Currently AVBR is disabled and VBR is the default method if maxrate is
not specified on Linux, but AVBR is the default one if maxrate is not
specified on Windows. In order to make user experience better accross
Linux and Windows, use VBR by default on Windows if maxrate is not
specified. User need to set both avbr_accuracy and avbr_convergence to
non-zero explicitly and not to specify maxrate if AVBR is expected.
In addition, AVBR works for H264 and HEVC only in the SDK.

Using parameter from AVCodecContext to reset qsv codec is more suitable
for MFXVideoENCODE_Reset()'s usage. Per-frame metadata is more suitable
for the usage of mfxEncodeCtrl being passed to
MFXVideoENCODE_EncodeFrameAsync(). Now change it to use the value
from AVCodecContext.
Because q->param is passed to both "in" and "out" parameters when call
MFXVideoENCODE_Query(), the value in q->param may be changed. New
variables are added to store old configuration, so that we can detect
real parameter change.
