avconv: do not silently ignore unused codec AVOptions.

Print an error and abort when the option is of the wrong type (decoding
for output file or vice versa), since this could never be correct for
any input or output configuration.

Print a warning and continue when the option is of the correct type,
just unused, so same commandlines can be reused for different kinds of
input or output files.
