Forgot to add: I have seen two related patches in the wild that attempt to
solve this same problem in different ways.

The first is in MythTV's ffmpeg fork, where they added a void
(*streams_changed)(void*); to AVFormatContext and call it from their mpegts
demuxer when the PMT changes.

The second was proposed by XBMC in
https://ffmpeg.org/pipermail/ffmpeg-devel/2012-December/135036.html, where
they created a new AVMEDIA_TYPE_DATA stream with id=0 and attempted to send
packets to it whenever the PMT changed.

The approach in this patch is similar to what's used by
AVFormatContext.event_flags and AVFMT_EVENT_FLAG_METADATA_UPDATED.

I re-used AVProgram.flags for this purpose (which appears not to be used
for anything else). To be more explicit, it might be better to add
AVProgram.event_flags. Note that either way, the user would need to clear
AV_PROGRAM_CHANGED after detecting it (which should be documented).

Another possibility would be to remove AV_PROGRAM_CHANGED altogether, which
means the user would need to keep a copy of program->version and compare it
to detect changes.

Probably needs new doxygen that says that the API user can clear that
change flag when convenient.
