    Add --sout-asf-bitrate-override setting to ASF muxer · d1e3b1c2

    This patch adds setting to override calculated bit rate outputted
    into ASF stream. This is needed in the cases where ASF muxer
    receives stream in TS (for example) and can't correctly determine
    what output bit rate should be.
    
    Windows Media Player actually uses ASF bitrate setting to calculate
    how much to cache and if the output bit rate is wrong it tries to
    cache too much or too little.
    
    To test the behaviour before this patch try to stream WMV in TS
    container to another VLC that remuxes it into ASF. Open the remuxed
    stream into WMP and you'll see how it tries to cache 1%, 2%, 3%
    and so on...
