[OE-core] [PATCH] x265: add x265 recipe

What I meant is that upstream is actually tagging releases:
https://github.com/videolan/x265/releases
and therefore we should package the latest release, rather than a random
commit.

Which means you should name the recipe x265_3.1.2.bb and set SRCREV to
match the 3.1.2 tag. Going forward, the recipe should be updated the same
way: rename file to the new version, update SRCREV.

Another problem is that github is not synced properly with the original
x265 repo, and is several months behind. SRC_URI should probably refer to
https://bitbucket.org/multicoreware/x265/src/default/
Alternatively, don't use git at all and fetch tarballs:
http://ftp.videolan.org/pub/videolan/x265/
