ffmpeg CLI pixel format selection for filtering currently special-cases MJPEG encoding, where it will restrict the supported list of pixel formats depending on the value of the -strict option. In order to get that value it will apply it from the options dict into the encoder context, which is a highly invasive action even now, and would become a race once encoding is moved to its own thread. The ugliness of this code can be much reduced by moving the special handling of MJPEG into ofilter_bind_ost(), which is called from encoder init and is thus synchronized with it. There is also no need to write anything to the encoder context, we can evaluate the option into our stack variable. There is also no need to access AVCodec at all during pixel format selection, as the pixel formats array is already stored in OutputFilterPriv.
