I have said it before and I will say it again: we should just kill p_palette 
so that video format is actually POD like so much code assumes. The troubles 
are not worth the benefits. It is just daft to treat paletized formats as 
decoded formats nowadays.

We should just have a common helper to dereference paletized pictures into YUV 
or RGB in the few affected video decoders.
