[vlc-devel] [PATCH 1/3] decoder: fix forgotten vout error state

[Thomas Guillem]

If the pool allocation fails or if the vout fails to start (via
input_resource_RequestVout()), an error is returned from
decoder_UpdateVideoFormat(). The next call to
decoder_UpdateVideoFormat() will return a success because the vctx will
be the same since only this variable is checked to detect a vout change.

To fix this issue, also release the vctx when returning an error.
