It's at the end of AVCodec, which is where the fields that must not be
used or accessed from outside of lavc reside. They are documented as
"can be removed at any time without warning and without bumping
version". So basically, it's not public.
Since you are accessing them directly from the fuzzer anyway, might as
well just assume the -1 termination and not bother adding a public
define for it. If we ever want this public then it can be added, perhaps
after a better design is found.
