wm4 f1175cd905 core: add --keep-open, which doesn't close the file on EOF
The --keep-open option causes mpv not to close the current file.
Instead, it will pause, and allow the user to seek around. When
seeking beyond the end of the file, mpv does a precise seek back to
the previous last known position that produced video output.

In some corner cases, mpv might not be able to produce video output at
all, despite having created a VO. (Possibly when only 1 frame could be
decoded, but the video filter chain queues frames. Then a VO would be
created, without sending an actual video frame to the VO.) In these
cases, the VO window will not redraw, not even OSD.

Based on a patch by coax [1].

README

Compiling with full features requires development files for several
external libraries. Below is a list of some important requirements. For
more information see the output of './configure --help' for a list of options,
or look at the list of enabled and disabled features printed after running
'./configure'. If you think you have support for some feature installed
but configure fails to detect it, the file config.log may contain information
about the reasons for the failure.

Libraries specific to particular video output methods
(you'll want at least one of VDPAU, GL or Xv):
 - libvdpau (for VDPAU output, best choice for NVIDIA cards)
 - libGL (OpenGL output)
 - libXv (XVideo output)
general:
 - libasound   (ALSA audio output)
 - various general X development libraries
 - libfreetype (for libass)
 - libfontconfig (for libass)
 - libass
 - FFmpeg libraries (libavutil libavcodec libavformat libswscale libpostproc)

Most of the above libraries are available in suitable versions on normal
Linux distributions. However FFmpeg is an exception (distro versions may be
too old to work at all or work well). For that reason you may want to use
the separately available build wrapper that first compiles FFmpeg libraries
and libass, and then compiles the player statically linked against those.
