iam working on it; see attachement.
feedback welcome; because nobody answered my original API v3.0 post.

more questions:
* should we call it XVID_VERSION or XVID_API_VERSION ??

* XVID_CPU_TSC can be removed; its not codec-performance related is it??

* XVID_CPU_IA64 can also be removed; when xvid is compiled with
  ARCH_IA64, it assumed the cpu has IA64 support, right??

* ive moved time_increment/base to XVID_ENC_FRAME to support
  variable frame rates.

* XVID_QUICK_DECODE? this in the old api, but never used in xvidcore.
  we should have DEC_FRAME flags for things like:
    * XVID_DEC_FAST           /* skip bframes */
    * XVID_DEC_CRAPIDCT       /* or maybe selectable idct, urgh */

* raw hints worry me, as they add a lot of structs to the api.
  does anyone use the raw(uncompressed) mv hints ??
