Only raw should be used. Otherwise, VLC will not only need duplicated
decoders, but also duplicated code for each Opus-capable muxer and for the
RTP output.

VLC_CODEC_OPUS should designate raw. Ogg header processing should probably
be in a packetizer (as Denis wants) or in the Ogg demuxer (especially if
only Ogg uses it).
