AAC 7.1 channels mixed up in decoding

Description

Summary of the bug:

I have an 8 channel audio file that I'm encoding as AAC. When inspecting the channels of the created aac file using ffmpeg, they appear to be in the wrong order or even added together.

This appears to be a problem in decoding, as inspecting the aac file with other software (I used Audacity) shows the channels in the correct order.

This problem appeared in ffmpeg 4.3. In ffmpeg 4.2.4 the channels are ok.

How to reproduce:

I'm using the 8_Channel_ID.wav file attached to this ticket.
I'm encoding to AAC using:

ffmpeg -i 8_Channel_ID.wav out.aac

First I inspect the channels using:

ffmpeg -i out.aac -filter_complex "showwavespic=s=1280x480:split_channels=1" -frames:v 1 -f image2 - | display

The result looks like the first two channels have been swapped with the last two.

Then I inspect the channels using:

ffmpeg -i out.aac -filter_complex "channelsplit=channel_layout=7.1,join=inputs=8:channel_layout=7.1,showwavespic=s=1280x480:split_channels=1" -frames:v 1 -f image2 - | display

The result looks like the last two channels have been added to the first two.

File is too big to attach so I'm linking it: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5uyzuuz0wgvn5t4/8_Channel_ID.wav?dl=0

Did a git bisect and the problem first appeared in 4d9b9c5e4637ac15205467f16fcac92a28e18f18

I'm guessing layout_map[2][2] = AAC_CHANNEL_SIDE; still needs to be set on every call? I'll attach a proposed patch.
