feat(ffmpeg): FFmpeg additional metadata (#4396)

This change adds additional FFmpeg metadata from the video and data streams. These streams can hold the start timecode which is very useful in OpenTimelineIO applications. I also added `av_guess_frame_rate()` which might be more robust than just checking `stream->avg_frame_rate`, but I can also create a separate PR if it is better to break it up. It doesn't look like there are any FFmpeg tests in `testsuite`? I tested with the DPEL ALab trailer and some Netflix Open Content movies, and was able to see the timecode metadata in the OIIO image attributes. --------- Signed-off-by: Darby Johnston <[email protected]>
