VapourPain

This took me quite the time.

VapourSynth is soft deprecating API3 and now is a proper pip package, this came with some pain for packagers.

While checking all the ebuilds I ended up removing a lot of packages, some of them were no longer active, others were deleted from GitHub and others were simply rotting at API3.

It also could have been that the package was a CUDA package, I no longer have an Nvidia GPU, so I can't test if they even work. If somebody wants to maintain those packages I'm open to pull requests. It may even be that those packages are in PyPI and you can just install from there (you are not going to use them in mpv anyway, probably).

If there is a package somebody thinks it's still relevant for their workflow and that has no real substitute (and still exists), it can be taken back, just ask in an issue.

An env file is created so you don't have to run any post-install steps, just relogin on your shell or source /etc/profile

media-plugins/bestsource: new plugin

BestSource (abbreviated as BS) is a cross-platform wrapper library around FFmpeg that ensures sample/frame accurate access to audio and video by always linearly decoding the input files. With a few tricks this can guarantee accurate seeking and can be surprisingly... not slow.

It can be used as either a C++ library directly or through the VapourSynth plugin that's included.
