options: support chapters for --start and --end
The --start and --end switch now accept a chapter number. The chapter number is prefixed with '#', e.g. "--start=#2" jumps to chapter 2. The chapter support might be able to replace --chapter completely, but for now I am not sure how well this works out with e.g. DVDs and BDs, and a separate --chapter option is useful interface-wise. (This was supposed to be added in 51503a, but apparently the fixup commit adding it was lost in a rebase. This might also be the reason for the mess-up fixed in 394285.)
