audio: remove --audiodrop
This would play some silence in case video was slower than audio. If framedropping is already enabled, there's no other way to keep A/V sync, short of changing audio playback speed (which would give worse results). The --audiodrop option inserted silence if there was more than 500ms desync. This worked somewhat, but I think it was a silly idea after all. Whether the playback experience is really bad or slightly worse doesn't really matter. There also was a subtle bug with PTS handling, that apparently caused A/V desync anyway at ridiculous playback speeds. Just remove this feature; nobody is going to use it anyway.
