#3141: ffprobe doesn't show the maximum number of reference frames

some formats (h264) support a variable number of maximum reference frames.
knowing this information is important to determine video compatibility
because some devices (PS3) only support a limited number.
mediainfo easily shows this information
{{{
$ mediainfo test.mkv
[…]
Video
[…]
Format settings, ReFrames : 9 frames
}}}
i've found no way to determine this using ffprobe, so either the feature
is missing or the documentation (website, help-section) is lacking.
