doc: Libavfilter English cleanup 

This aims to standardize the English used in the libavfilter
documentation, describing the same thing in the same way more often,
and significantly reduce the amount of outright errors, including
run-on sentences and sentence fragments.

splits the stream in two streams, then sends one stream through the crop filter
and the vflip filter, before merging it back with the other stream by
overlaying it on top. You can use the following command to achieve this:
@example
./avconv -i input -vf "[in] split [T1], fifo, [T2] overlay=0:H/2 [out]; [T1] fifo, crop=iw:ih/2:0:ih/2, vflip [T2]" output
@end example
The result will be that in output the top half of the video is mirrored
onto the bottom half.
The result will be that the top half of the video is mirrored
onto the bottom half of the output video.
Video filters are loaded using the @var{-vf} option passed to
avconv or to avplay. Filters in the same linear chain are separated by
commas. In our example, @var{split, fifo, overlay} are in one linear
chain, and @var{fifo, crop, vflip} are in another. The points where
the linear chains join are labeled by names enclosed in square
brackets. In our example, that is @var{[T1]} and @var{[T2]}. The magic
