 in the documentation -- I'll do that in the next commit.

 I had a better idea while working on this:  the user can set
 `iterations=None` and/or `pix_fmt=None` to stop sage from doing anything
 at all with these options.  Then they can be set to whatever the user
 wants with `ffmpeg_options`.  In this way, we support recent (as of summer
 2011) versions of ffmpeg by default, but allow motivated people to work
 with an older version.  If pix_fmt somehow causes trouble in a way I don't
 foresee, it can be disabled too.

 The previous commit passes all (optional=sage,ffmpeg) tests in
 `animate.py` with both of my ffmpeg installations.
