vo_opengl: make the default radius 3.0 and simplify scaler documentation

This also fixes the maximum range to 16.0, which was previously set to
32.0 and incorrectly documented as 8.0. 16 taps should be more than
anybody will ever need, but it's the highest radius that's supported by
all affected filters.
