[FFmpeg-devel] avformat/ftp: add AVOptions for authentication

This introduces two new AVOption options for the FTP protocol,
one named ftp-user to supply the username to be used for auth,
one named ftp-password to supply the password to be used for auth.

These are useful for when an API user does not wish to deal with
URL manipulation and percent encoding.

Setting them while also having credentials in the URL will use the
credentials from the URL. The rationale for this is that credentials
embedded in the URL are probably more specific to what the user is
trying to do than anything set by some API user.
