Doing this with REDUCE_FORMATS() instead of swap_color_*() is not only shorter, but more importantly comes with the benefit of being done inside a loop, allowing us to correctly propagate complex graphs involving multiple conversion filters (e.g. -vf scale,zscale). The latter family of swapping functions is only used to settle the best *remaining* entry if no exact match was found, and as such was never the correct solution to YUV colorspaces, which only care about exact matches. (cherry picked from commit b89ee2653919c14193f646ba03b2bf1d13c9aa2d)
