I didn't design the HAP codec, so my answer mostly follow the comments
of Tom Butterworth. (in the previous discussion of decoding/encoding)

Like it seems that the Hap Alpha Only is only design to be use for alpha
channel encoding
(not to encode gray), it use in this new patch  : RGBA input/output (using
only the alpha channel)

In a more general way, HAP is only useful when use with GPU
decoding/compositing (specially in very big resolution, with lot of video
layer)
(not the case in the ffmpeg).

IMO, the ffmpeg support is mostly interesting to convert hap file to
something else
or to check what we can encode with the ffmpeg hap encoder.
