It is overtly pessimistic. In fact, AV_INPUT_BUFFER_PADDING_SIZE has
been bumped several times with no changes to the GetBit API.
The correct value is not defined anywhere; I'd need to take a closer
look at it to find it out.

If the parsing function does not require padding, then it can be used
with any buffer, not only those created by the serialization function.
