avformat/matroskaenc: Rename functions to better reflect what they do

EBML uses variable length integers both for the EBML IDs as well as for
the EBML lengths; Matroska also uses them for the TrackNumber in
(Simple)Blocks and for the lengths of laces when EBML lacing is used.

When encoding EBML lengths, certain encodings have a special meaning,
namely that the element has an unknown length. This is not so when
encoding general EBML variable length integers.

Yet the functions called ebml_num_size() and put_ebml_num() had this
special meaning hardcoded, i.e. they are there to write EBML lengths and
not general EBML numbers. So rename them.

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides a mean to alter decoded Audio and Video through chain of filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
