time and datetime log flags

This commit adds two logging flags: 'time' and 'datetime'.
Usage:
ffmpeg -loglevel +time
or
ffmpeg -loglevel +datetime
Setting av_log_set_flags(0) in term_exit in ffmpeg.c prevents
timing to be printed when exiting.

If I understand the purpose of AV_LOG_QUIET correctly the correct way
would be to skip writing time/datetime information in the log writer
itself (part of patch #1 in this patch-set) if level is <=
AV_LOG_QUIET,
rather than clearing the flags here.

Hi Tobias,
my understanding of AV_LOG_QUIET would be that when program code logs a message with that
level, it will be printed even when the user has "-loglevel quiet".
I would wonder why such log messages shouldn't be prefixed with the time
(normally).
To me it appears that the special case is rather the log invocation on exit
which prints - well: nothing.
I'd rather question why it is not printing the log level for quiet. Is it
really intended or was it only done to make it possible to print this empty
message on exit?
Do I see it wrong? Then I'll change it of course.
Thanks a lot for reviewing!

The documentation for AV_LOG_QUIET in log.h says "Print no output" and
from grepping through code it seems the implementation matches that
definition. The purpose of av_log(NULL, AV_LOG_QUIET, "%s", "") is
described with the AV_LOG_SKIP_REPEATED flag, see
https://ffmpeg.org/doxygen/trunk/group__lavu__log.html#ga6cdf5cd331b17e80e8308124f05a6db8
.
So I suggest to just add a "(level > AV_LOG_QUIET)" clause to the added
lines in forma_line(), similar to how it is done with the loglevel
prefix in that function some lines below:
if (*print_prefix && (level > AV_LOG_QUIET) && (flags & (AV_LOG_PRINT_TIME |
AV_LOG_PRINT_DATETIME)))
format_date_now(&part[4], flags & AV_LOG_PRINT_DATETIME);
Regards, Tobias
