The documentation of avcodec_send_packet() states that NULL packets
and packets with data == NULL and size == 0 signal EOS.
Yet avcodec_send_packet() actually used the BSF-definition of EOS:
A packet with no data and no side-data is EOS. This commit fixes this.

A different solution to this mess is to adapt the documentation.
Given the recent extensions to AVPacket I have come to regret that
we allow to signal flushing by anything but a NULL packet.
