[Feature request] Support setting custom extension when using video-pipe

[Aciz]

When using video-pipe to pipe video/audio to ffmpeg, the extension is hardcoded to be mp4.

Quake3e/code/client/cl_main.c

Lines 3539 to 3562 in 14e33fb

	pipe = ( Q_stricmp( Cmd_Argv( 0 ), "video-pipe" ) == 0 );
	if ( pipe )
	ext = "mp4";
	else
	ext = "avi";
	if ( Cmd_Argc() == 2 )
	{
	// explicit filename
	Com_sprintf( filename, sizeof( filename ), "videos/%s", Cmd_Argv( 1 ) );
	// override video file extension
	if ( pipe )
	{
	char *sep = strrchr( filename, '/' ); // last path separator
	char *e = strrchr( filename, '.' );
	if ( e && e > sep && *(e+1) != '\0' ) {
	ext = e + 1;
	*e = '\0';
	}
	}
	}

However, ffmpeg allows overriding the auto-determined container with -f <containter> flag. Combining this with video-pipe produces a correct container as per the -f flag, but the extension is still forced to be mp4. It would be nice to introduce something like cl_aviPipeExtension or cl_aviPipeContainer to allow specifying the extension.

With cl_aviPipeFormat "-pix_fmt yuvj420p -c:v mjpeg -q:v 10 -c:a pcm_s16le -f mov", which results in a MJPEG encoded video + wav audio in a .mov container, the resulting file is still .mp4, but the actual container is still .mov, and just requires manual renaming.

Parsing cl_aviPipeFormat for the -f flag might be another option in place of a dedicated cvar, but I'm not sure how reliable that would be.
