player: allow passing number of loops to --loop-file

E.g. --loop-file=2 will play the file 3 times (one time normally, and 2
repeats).

Minor syntax issue: "--loop-file 5" won't work, you have to use
"--loop-file=5". This is because "--loop-file" still has to work for
compatibility, so the "old" syntax with a space between option name and
value can't work.
