player: make external subtitle auto-loading stricter
By default --sub-auto uses "exact". This was far from an "exact" match,
because it added anything that started with the video filename (without
extension), and seemed to end in something that looked like a language
code.
Make this stricter. "exact" still tolerate a language code, but the
video's filename must come before it without any unknown extra
characters. This may not load subtitles in some situations where it
previously did, and where the user might think that the naming
convention is such that it should be considered an exact match.
The subtitle priority sorting seems a bit worthless. I suppose it may
have some value in higher "fuzz" modes (like --sub-auto=fuzzy).
Also remove the mysterious "prio += prio;" line. I probably shouldn't
have checked, but it goes back to commit f16fa9d31 (2003), where someone
wanted to "refine" the priority without changing the rest of the code or
something.
Mostly untested, so have fun.
Fixes: #7702
