It's a user-set parameter shared with AVCodecParameters, so it should only

1. ff_codec_close() already has an "if is_encoder" branch, it does not
need another one.
2. The code in ff_codec_close() will be redundant as soon as
FF_API_AVCODEC_CLOSE is no more, so it should be inside
FF_API_AVCODEC_CLOSE.
3. The documentation of this field does not mention ownership, but given
that this field existed for a long time lavc's previous behaviour
established the implicit contract that lavc will free this in
avcodec_close(). You are breaking this implicit contract for no good

Yes, I wrote this set forgetting avcodec_close() was still a thing.

reason apart from this new principle that user-set stuff shared with
AVCodecParameters should not be freed in avcodec_close(). Which is crazy
given that the relevant AVCodecParameters field has only been added
recently.
