Subject: libav: divide-by-zero in ff_h263_decode_mba()

Description:                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                   
Libav is an open source set of tools for audio and video processing.                                                                                                                                                                                                           
                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                               
After talking with Luca Barbato which is both a Gentoo and Libav 
developer, I spent a bit of my time fuzzing libav and in particular I 
fuzzed libavcodec though avplay.                                                                                                        
I hit a crash and after I reported it to upstream, they confirmed the 
issue as a divide-by-zero.
