presets: Minor encoder tweaks for main Production presets.
Add additional x264 encoder options dct-decimate=0 and fast-pskip=0 (same as no-dct-decimate=1 and no-fast-pskip=1).
In some special cases, reproduction of flat areas and subtle gradients may improve slightly. Generally speaking, any change should be visually imperceptible at these bit rates, but adding a few extra bits is always acceptable when encoding for production intermediate purposes. Negligible speed hit (1-2%) for the main Production presets.
On the contrary, these settings are worse than useless for Production Proxy presets, which are optimized for speed. 5% speed hit isn't worth the tradeoff for low resolution proxies that need to be generated quickly and won't be used for final export.

MacGui: do not crash if hb_video_encoder_get_name returns NULL, it might happens if there is a saved job with an external encoder (x264 10bit for example), and the external lib is no longer available.
For some stream types, libav does not seek all streams within the file
to the same position. So we get data from streams that is prior to the
desired preview start position leaking through. The result, for example,
is a preview that has audio that starts from the beginning of the file
and video that starts much later at the desired start pos.

presets: Add Production presets for use with professional video editing software.
Production Max and Production Standard are high bit rate, short GOP (I/P), constant frame rate presets suitable for use as intermediate formats for video editing.

sync: work-around players with broken edit list support
This adds a preset key AlignAVStart that enables this work-around. When
enabled, blank frames are inserted or frames are dropped to force
alignment of the initial timestamp of every audio and video stream.
Aligning the start times minimizes the impact of broken edit list
support in players.
Closes #763.

sync: improve alignment when passthru audio is present
presets: enable AlignAVStart for General and Gmail presets
LinGui: Improve AlignAVStart tooltip
sync: avoid inserting a black frame < nominal frame duration

Allow audio fallback to be "None" (#623)
* Allow audio fallback to be "None"
When audio fallback is "None", a failure to do passthru will result in
no output audio track being added.

Drop track when fallback codec is invalid instead of falling back to a
default. Since all presets have a fallback set, the default fallback
condition would only ever be triggered by an invalid setting.
