A single VorbisComment consists of a length field and a non-NUL-terminated string of the form "key=value". Up until now, when parsing such a VorbisComment, zero-terminated duplicates of key and value would be created. This is wasteful if these duplicates are freed shortly afterwards, as happens in particular in case of attached pictures: In this case value is base64 encoded and only needed to decode the actual data. Therefore this commit changes this: The buffer is temporarily modified so that both key and value are zero-terminated. Then the data is used in-place and restored to its original state afterwards. This requires that the buffer has at least one byte of padding. All buffers currently have AV_INPUT_BUFFER_PADDING_SIZE bytes padding, so this is ok. Finally, this also fixes weird behaviour from ogm_chapter(): It sometimes freed given to it, leaving the caller with dangling pointers.
