Update to 2.4.1:

The FFmpeg Project proudly presents FFmpeg 2.4 "Fresnel", just 2 months
after the release of 2.3. Since this wasn't a long time ago, the Changelog
is a bit short this time.

The most important thing in this release is the major version bump of the
libraries.  This means that this release is neither ABI-compatible nor
fully API-compatible. But on the other hand it is aligned with the Libav
11 release series, and will as a result probably end up being maintained for
a long time.

Important API changes since 2.3:

• The new field mime_type was added to AVProbeData, which can
  cause crashes, if it is not initialized.
• Some deprecated functions were removed.
• The avfilter_graph_parse function was made compatible with Libav.
• The Matroska demuxer now outputs verbatim ASS packets.

Please refer to the doc/APIchanges file for more information.
