manpage: document --aspect special values
Use of these is "discouraged", but they're there to select these special cases with the "aspect" property. They really should use some sort of choice option type, but since it would be some work to make these work with float values, the simple and dumb alternative was picked.

Override movie aspect ratio, in case aspect information is incorrect or
missing in the file being played. See also ``--no-aspect``.
+ Two values have special meaning:
+
+ :0: disable aspect ratio handling, pretend the video has square pixels
+ :-1: use the video stream or container aspect (default)
+
+ But note that handling of these special values might change in the future.
+
.. admonition:: Examples
- ``--aspect=4:3`` or ``--aspect=1.3333``
