Aborting decoding of the entire packet on a missing PPS can result in

Instead, skip the undecodable slice, and let the decoder process further
NALs in the same packet.

The decoder should IMO also set the output frame's decode_error_flags to
FF_DECODE_ERROR_DECODE_SLICES in this scenario.


There is a variety of error conditions that can lead to a slice being
skipped, not just this one. I can potentially add it here, but it
won't be a very exhaustive flag.
If its also the first slice, the frame will fail to decode entirely as
well, although the point primarily here is to allow parsing of
non-image NALs.

What h264 does is set an internal flag on any kind of slice error at assorted places, then set the AVFrame one before returning it based on that (Needed because of frame threading).

It's not a blocker in any case. But even if it's just set at this point for the time being, it would at least be a start.
