avcodec/huffman: replace qsort with AV_QSORT

ff_huff_build_tree uses qsort underneath. AV_QSORT is substantially
faster due to the inlining of the comparison callback. Furthermore, this
code is reasonably performance critical, since in e.g the fraps codec,
ff_huff_build_tree is called on every frame. This routine is also called
in vp6 on every frame in some circumstances.

Sample benchmark (x86-64, Haswell, GNU/Linux), vp6 from FATE:
vp6 (old):
  78930 decicycles in qsort,       1 runs,      0 skips
  45330 decicycles in qsort,       2 runs,      0 skips
  27825 decicycles in qsort,       4 runs,      0 skips
  17471 decicycles in qsort,       8 runs,      0 skips
  12296 decicycles in qsort,      16 runs,      0 skips
   9554 decicycles in qsort,      32 runs,      0 skips
   8404 decicycles in qsort,      64 runs,      0 skips
   7405 decicycles in qsort,     128 runs,      0 skips
   6740 decicycles in qsort,     256 runs,      0 skips
