A ton of cleanup and refactoring went into this. Too much to list.

ffmpeg 5.1 introduced ipfs:// and ipns:// streaming support as part of
libavformat. This new implementation falls back to fetching from an
untrusted 3rd party internet service in the (likely) case where a user
doesn't have a local IPFS gateway running on their computer. This puts
an unaudited 3rd party provider in a position where they can log and
alter any IPFS content being streamed by the ffmpeg library. No user
consent is collected at any point by the library.
ffmpeg developers are currently discussing [1] how to better implement
this feature. In the meantime, cherry-pick the proposed patch to disable
the default gateway until a better alternative is released.
