RepeatPPS is enabled by default in mfx. It is not necessary mostly and
wasting encoding bits.
Add an option to control it and disable it by default.

1. vcm mode is only available for H264.
2. vcm is not supported on Linux, but it is shown when run "./avconv -h
encoder=h264_qsv |grep vcm". This shouldn't happen.

Provide proper aliases to enable/disable MFE.
The numeric values are ambiguous and misleading (e.g: user may misunderstand
setting mfmode to 1 is to enable MFE but actually it is to disable MFE, and
set it to be 5 or above is meaningless).
MFX_MF_MANUAL hasn't been exposed since it is to be implemented.

Look_ahead can provide quality improvements, but would better disable it by default due to some reasons:
1. It is only available for some codecs (e.g. HEVC is not supported) on Intel
Haswell and plus platforms. Thus means it will be failed on some platforms.
2. It significantly increases encoding latency and memory consumption.
3. It may overwrite some other options such as CBR and CAVLC.

Explicitly identify decoder/encoder wrappers with a common name. This
saves API users from guessing by the name suffix. For example, they
don't have to guess that "h264_qsv" is the h264 QSV implementation, and
instead they can just check the AVCodec .codec and .wrapper_name fields.
Explicitly mark AVCodec entries that are hardware decoders or most
likely hardware decoders with new AV_CODEC_CAPs. The purpose is allowing
API users listing hardware decoders in a more generic way. The proposed
AVCodecHWConfig does not provide this information fully, because it's
concerned with decoder configuration, not information about the fact
whether the hardware is used or not.
AV_CODEC_CAP_HYBRID exists specifically for QSV, which can have software
implementations in case the hardware is not capable.

Merged as-at libav 398f015, and therefore includes outstanding
skipped merges 04b17ff and 130e1f1.
All features not in libav are preserved, and no options change.
The b_frame_strategy option is only used by mpegvideoenc, qsv, x264, and
xavs, while b_sensitivity is only used by mpegvideoenc.
These are very codec-specific options, so deprecate the global variants.
Set proper limits to the maximum allowed values.
