- Presets are mapped accordingly internally in the macgui code so that they are unchanged across platforms.

Fix PFR issue where there are different number of frames in 1st and 2nd pass.
Waiting for a fill threshhold in the fifos causes some non-determinism
in finding the first PTS value. Sometimes the fill level of one fifo
would not be reached until after another fifo is completely full, causing
an early exit in the loop that looks for the first PTS. When the initial PTS
is different between passes, the duration of the first frame is different.
This affects the PFR algorithm and can cause it to drop a different number
of frames.
The fill level was initially intended as a way to prevent thrashing between
threads to improve performance. But my testing indicates no degradation
when removing it.

Add temporally overlapping subtitle support.
* New subtitle sync algorithm added to sync work-object ("simultaneous").
Classic algorithm preserved but disabled.
* Render work-object now supports queueing a /list/ of subtitles.
* FIFOs have been extended to support pushing/popping buffer-lists as single elements.
* Added SUBSYNC_VERBOSE_TIMING flag to debug timing issues related to subtitle display.
Observable behaviors changed in the new subtitle sync algorithm:
* Temporally overlapping subtitles are no longer trimmed to be non-overlapping.
* Subtitles less than two seconds long are no longer artificially extended. Sorry, Indochine fans.
* Subtitles that stop before they start will never be displayed. The old algorithm will display such subtitles if they begin in the future (relative to the current video frame being processed).

MacGui: In Preferences, Instead of the old "Use iTunes / iPod friendly file extension for mp4" checkbox we allow three choices:
- Auto (Default): will use .mp4 unless any of the conditions are met for Apple devices to use .m4v such as AC3 audio or chapters, etc.
- .m4v: will set the extension to .m4v regardless of settings.
- .mp4: will set the extension to .mp4 regardless of settings.
Basically anything other than Auto forces either the .m4v or .mp4 file extension. Again "Auto" is default.
Note: This deprecates the old preferences plist key "DefaultMpegName" which was just a bool and adds "DefaultMpegExtension" which is a string. As a result users that had the old "Use iPod/iTunes friendly (.m4v) file extension for MP4" checkbox checked will need to select ".m4v" in the new preferences dialogue.
