demux_mf: improve format string processing
Before this commit, the user could specify a printf format string which wasn't verified, and could result in: - Undefined behavior due to missing or non-matching arguments. - Buffer overflow due to untested result length. The offending code was added at commit 103a960 (2002, mplayer svn): git-svn-id: svn://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk@4566 b3059339-0415-0410-9bf9-f77b7e298cf2 It moved around but was not modified meaningfully until now. Now we reject all conversion specifiers at the format except %% and a simple subset of the valid specifiers. Also, we now use snprintf to avoid buffer overflow. The format string is provided by the user as part of mf:// URI. Report and initial patch by Stefan Schiller. Patch reviewed by @jeeb, @sfan5, Stefan Schiller.
