vd_lavc: don't hardware decode vc1 by default #15733

First commit based on the suggestion: #15715 (comment)

Actually we were already logging a message in this case, but it was
only verbose. Bump it up to info if --hwdec-codecs is at the default
value and we are trying to use hwdec since it is probably not obvious to
users what is happening.
It's known to be broken on several drivers/hwdecs. hwdec for vc1 is
probably not very useful in practice so just disable it by default.

Closes mpv-player#15715.

I can't find the IRC logs, but I already proposed lowering the level of the "Not trying to use hardware decoding" message and someone (CounterPillow?) said that it already was info before and was raised because people kept thinking that hardware decoding not being used was a bug, and that it would also get logged for codecs that don't support hardware decoding like images.

That would be this ddaab33. But indeed this would have a similar effect. If we don't want any kind of warning at all maybe just reopen #12407 and merge?
