avformat/segment: add option min_seg_duration

New option can be used to avoid creating very short segments with inputs whose GOP size is variable or unharmonic with segment_time. Only effective with segment_time.

+@item min_seg_duration @var{time}
+Set minimum segment duration to @var{time}, the value must be a duration
+specification. This prevents the muxer ending segments at a duration below
+this value. Only effective with @code{segment_time}. Default value is "0".

 @item segment_atclocktime @var{1|0}
 If set to "1" split at regular clock time intervals starting from 00:00
