Hi,

This patch series adds initial parsing for MVC. The first two patches are just
helper functions that are to be reused for both MVC and SVC parsers. The third
patch adds initial MVC support if the user doesn't care of MVC specific syntax
elements in subset SPS header. The last patch adds full MVC SPS header parsing.
New VUI and SEI messages are left out for now.

I am not fully sure this is the right way to handle the subset SPS headers but
it's definitely needed to perform dynamic memory allocation somewhere.
Otherwise, a full SPS descriptor suitable for MVC expands to a few MBs.

Just wanted to publish the MVC codec parser early so that to get your feedback
on the proposed API. Thanks.
