package/omxplayer: new package
OMXplayer uses openMAX on the RPi to play videos with hardware
acceleration.
Compared to using a gstreamer pipe, OMXplayer uses a complete
"tunnel-mode", in which the video is piped (after demuxing) into the
hardware, all the way down to the display, whereas gstreamer composes
the video using the eglgles sink, which uses mem-to-mem copies.
So, when playing a locally-stored 1080p video, OMXplayer averages 20%
(with peaks up to ~30%, depending on the complexity of the video) CPU,
while gstreamer bursts up to 40+% when playing 720p and totally chokes
on a 1080p video; all on an non-overclocked RPi-1.
Note that we have to depend on rpi-userland. rpi-userland is a GLES/EGL
provider, so it can't be selected (as all providers of a virtual package
can't).
