You can use the "DoubleWidth hack format" because it is only really a hack within AviSynth. Neither x265 nor x264 ever needed a patch for that. That's the format they always expected 16 bit input in.
But as you say with AviSynth+ and y4m it is easier anyways.

Except for those of us still using 32 bit AviSynth. x265 only officially supports 8 bit on 32 bit binaries. You need some kind of hacked/patched x265 version if you want 32 bit + 10 bit.
