demux_timeline: warn if streams are invisible

ytdl_hook.lua can do this with all_formats and when delay_open is used,
and if the source stream actually contains both audio and video. In this
case, it might accidentally hide a media type completely, or waste
bandwidth (if the stream has true interleaved audio/video). So it's
important to warn.
