manpage: add section about using mpv from programs and scripts
Give an overview over the various methods. I feel like I've written text like this over and over again (compatibility.rst and interface-changes.rst for example duplicate the list of mpv API abstractions), but such is life in hell. Use this in particular to strongly suggest not to parse terminal output. This suggestion got lost or de-emphasized at some point (maybe when removing MPlayer and "slave mode" references). Some of this text is still there, but it can be considered "fine print" at best, that nobody will see. Now we have it in a more prominent place. This is especially important since MPlayer-style use of mpv still seems to be prevalent, see for example #7153.
