lavc: rename AV_CODEC_CAP_AUTO_THREADS->AV_CODEC_CAP_OTHER_THREADS
This cap is currently used to mark multithreading-capable codecs that
wrap external libraries with their own multithreading code. The name is
highly confusing for our API users, since libavcodec ALWAYS handles
thread_count=0 (see commit message in previous commit). Therefore rename
the cap and update its documentation to make its meaning clear.
The old name is kept deprecated until next+1 major bump.
