command: fix or document some property/option consistency issues
Make some existing properties behave more like options. This mostly means they don't deny access if the associated component is not active, but redirects to the option. One kind of fishy change is that we apply --brightness etc. only if they're not set to the default value. This won't necessarily work with --vo=xv, but affects only cases where 1. the Xv adapter has been changed to non-defaults, and 2. the user tries to reset them with mpv by passing e.g. --brightness=0. We don't care about Xv, and the noted use-case is dumb, so this change is acceptable.
