[vlc-devel] [PATCH] picture: always copy context when cloning

This could work but I'd prefer with an example of using this feature 
(calling picture_pool_New() with pictures that already have a 
picture_context_t) to see if it's going to lead to leaks of the 
picture_pool. Right now the ref counting is done outside of the 
picture_pool and the last clone released releases the pool.
