video/out: remove video mode switching (--vm)
This allowed making the player switch the monitor video mode when
creating the video window. This was a questionable feature, and with
today's LCD screens certainly not useful anymore. Switching to a random
video mode (going by video width/height) doesn't sound too useful
either.
I'm not sure about the win32 implementation, but the X part had several
bugs. Even in mplayer-svn (where x11_common.c hasn't been receiving any
larger changes for a long time), this code is buggy and doesn't do the
right thing anyway. (And what the hell _did_ it do when using multiple
physical monitors?)
If you really want this, write a shell script that calls xrandr before
and after calling mpv.
vo_sdl still can do mode switching, because SDL has native support for
it, and using it is trivial. Add a new sub-option for this.
