v0.2.2 -- 5.1 Audio/Chapter Stripping, Default Configs

New

• Default configuration files can be placed in platformdirs.user_config_path() / "ffmpeg4discord.json" See docs

Fix

• Files with 5.1 channel audio now function with the current implementation of ffmpeg4discord's audio compression
• Video file chapters are now stripped from the output. They were causing issues with total clip duration in the output.
