lavf/qtpalette: Ignore greyscale bit in certain cases 

The QuickTime File Format Specification states the following:

"Depth: A 16-bit integer that indicates the pixel depth of the
compressed image. Values of 1, 2, 4, 8 ,16, 24, and 32 indicate the
depth of color images. The value 32 should be used only if the image
contains an alpha channel. Values of 34, 36, and 40 indicate 2-, 4-, and
8-bit grayscale, respectively, for grayscale images."

There is no mention of value 33, i.e. 1-bit video (0x01) with the
greyscale bit (0x20) set. I therefore suggest that we ignore the
greyscale bit when processing 1-bit video. Another reason to do this is
that the first 1-bit sample file below will be displayed properly with
blue colors in QuickTime in Windows or Mac *in spite of* the greyscale
bit being set.

Also, QuickTime in Windows or Mac ignores the greyscale bit if the
video sample description contains a palette, regardless of bit depth.
This is undocumented behaviour, but I think we should do the same, and
it seems pretty logical after all, since one wouldn't really bother
putting a customized palette into a grayscale file anyway. See the
second 8-bit sample file below, which has the greyscale bit set, and
which contains a palette in the video sample description. In Windows or
Mac, it will be displayed with the palette in the sample description, in
spite of the greyscale bit being set.
