x264 has to be compiled specifically for a target bit depth.
Distributions currently ship various libraries in their packages, with
different bit depths.
This change now allows to provide them all at configure time and have
the x264enc element dynamically switch between them based on the bit
depth of the input format.

Highlights of the features provided are:
* Faster builds on Linux (~40-50% faster)
* The ability to build with MSVC on Windows
* Generate Visual Studio project files
* Generate XCode project files
* Much faster builds on Windows (on-par with Linux)
* Seriously fast configure and building on embedded
... and many more. For more details see:

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
_stdint.h is generated by Autotools and we don't really need it. All
supported platforms now ship with stdint.h. The only stickler was MSVC,
and since Visual Studio 2015 it also ships stdint.h now.
Avoid compiler warnings "‘foo’ may be used uninitialized in this
function" when building with -O3 by checking the return bool value
of format conversion function.

Fix seeking when demuxer is in INDEX state. This happens when we
reached the end of the stream. It should still be possible to do
a flushing seek and seek back to any other position though. Instead
the demuxer would just go straight to EOS again instead of going
back to processing packets again from the new position.
