Currently, the zoompan filter exposes a 'time' variable (missing from docs) for use in
the 'zoom', 'x', and 'y' expressions. This variable is perhaps better named
'out_time' as it represents the timestamp in seconds of each output frame
produced by zoompan. This patch adds aliases 'out_time' and 'ot' for 'time'.
This patch also adds an 'in_time' (alias 'it') variable that provides access
to the timestamp in seconds of each input frame to the zoompan filter.
This helps to design zoompan filters that depend on the input video timestamps.
For example, it makes it easy to zoom in instantly for only some portion of a video.
Both the 'out_time' and 'in_time' variables have been added in the documentation
for zoompan.
Example usage of 'in_time' in the zoompan filter to zoom in 2x for the
first second of the input video and 1x for the rest:
zoompan=z='if(between(in_time,0,1),2,1):d=1'
V2: Fix zoompan filter documentation stating that the time variable
would be NAN if the input timestamp is unknown.
V3: Add 'it' alias for 'in_time. Add 'out_time' and 'ot' aliases for 'time'.
Minor corrections to zoompan docs.

AVFilterLink.frame_count is supposed to count the number of frames
that were passed on the link, but with min_samples, that number is
not always the same for the source and destination filters.
With the addition of a FIFO on the link, the difference will become
more significant.
Split the variable in two: frame_count_in counts the number of
frames that entered the link, frame_count_out counts the number
of frames that were sent to the destination filter.

Libav, for some reason, merged this as a public API function. This will
aid in future merges.
A define is left for backwards compat, just in case some person
used it, since it is in a public header.
