video: different way to enable hardware decoding, add software fallback
Deprecate the hardware specific video codec entries (like ffh264vdpau). Replace them with the --hwdec switch, which requests that a specific hardware decoding API should be used. The codecs.conf entries will be removed at a later time, but for now they are useful for testing and compatibility. Instead of --vc=ffh264vdpau, --hwdec=vdpau should be used. Add a fallback if hardware decoding fails. Most hardware decoders (including vdpau) support only a subset of h264, and having such a fallback is supposed to enable a better user experience.
