Enables writing buffered frames to the outsink using send command api.

This is useful when a lavf user wants to fetch buffered frames without
closing/reopening the filtergraph again and again.

Missing documentation. Also it is lavfi not lavf.

…[snip]…

Jai:

I'm not an official reviewer or anything, but I have looked at the 
libavfilter/vf_fps.c code recently.

This looks like a useful extension. I can imagine it being useful to 
flush frames through the *fps* filter while FFmpeg is running. I could 
imagine this patch pointing the way for further improvements later.

However, I don't see any change to the *fps* filter documentation in 
this patch. If a patch changes the way a user can control a filter, but 
doesn't document that change, then doesn't the patch cause the code to 
diverge further from the documentation? And long-term, doesn't that lead 
to problems?

Best regards,
