Contribs - FLAC: update to v1.2.1. Mingw32 patch is unneeded (upstream merge). A few bugs and crash are fixed, new support for all RIFF/AIFF metadata, including Broadcast Wave Format (BWF).

Contribs: Theora moves from alpha7 to alpha8. New encoder, one patch has gone upstream, and examples can be disabled. A lot of new features are available in the encoder. Postprocessing, anyone ?
