options: change [...] to balanced quotes

Browse Source 
Useful for dealing with libavfilter's terrible graph syntax.

Not strictly backwards compatible (for example "[a[b]" fails now - the
"[" within the quote is interpreted now). But hopefully it's obscure
enough not to warrant any kind of compatibility hacks.

The ``[...]`` from of quotes wraps everything between ``[`` and ``]``. It's
useful with shells that don't interpret these characters in the middle of

an argument (like bash). These quotes are balanced (since mpv 0.9.0): the ``[``
and ``]`` nest, and the quote terminates on the last ``]`` that has no matching
``[`` within the string. (For example, ``[a[b]c]`` results in ``a[b]c``.)
The fixed-length quoting syntax is intended for use with external
scripts and programs.
