vd_lavc: request 1 more threads than CPU cores 

This duplicates the logic which FFmpeg's libavcodec uses. The effects
are unknown, though it's somewhat clear that a single thread doesn't
necessarily saturate a single CPU.

(Eventually we should just let FFmpeg auto-init the thread count, but
for now I prefer it this way, so e.g. verbose mode will print the
thread count.)
