fftools/ffmpeg: add loopback decoding
This allows to send an encoder's output back to decoding and feed the result into a complex filtergraph.

filters is obviously also impossible, since filters work on uncompressed data.
+@section Loopback decoders
+While decoders are normally associated with demuxer streams, it is also possible
+to create "loopback" decoders that decode the output from some encoder and allow
+it to be fed back to complex filtergraphs. This is done with the @code{-dec}
+directive, which takes as a parameter the index of the output stream that should
+be decoded. Every such directive creates a new loopback decoder, indexed with
+successive integers starting at zero. These indices should then be used to refer
+to loopback decoders in complex filtergraph link labels, as described in the
+documentation for @option{-filter_complex}.
+
+E.g. the following example:
+
+@example
+ffmpeg -i INPUT \
+ -map 0:v:0 -c:v libx264 -crf 45 -f null - \
+ -dec 0:0 -filter_complex '[0:v][dec:0]hstack[stack]' \
+ -map '[stack]' -c:v ffv1 OUTPUT
+@end example
+
+reads an input video and
+@itemize
+@item
+(line 2) encodes it with @code{libx264} at low quality;
+
+@item
+(line 3) decodes this encoded stream and places it side by side with the
+original input video;
+
+@item
+(line 4) combined video is then losslessly encoded and written into
+@file{OUTPUT}.
