video: replace vf_format outputlevels option with global option

The vf_format suboption is replaced with --video-output-levels (a global
option and property). In particular, the parameter is removed from
mp_image_params. The mechanism is moved to the "video equalizer", which
also handles common video output customization like brightness and
contrast controls.

The new code is slightly cleaner, and the top-level option is slightly
more user-friendly than as vf_format sub-option.
