[Cin] how to add -bitexact flag to encoder?

[Phyllis Smith]

Interesting results from tests using "flags" on a small 4K webm video
only.  You can see "bitexact" is the same as flags set to unaligned, mv4,
qpel, and gray. Cgop and Global Header do differ so it appears that "flags"
is working.

   SAME 69705241 Nov 24 15:30 mv4.mp4
   SAME 69705241 Nov 24 16:51 qpel.mp4
   Different 69808336 Nov 24 15:23 *cgop*.mp4
   SAME 69705241 Nov 24 16:57 gray.mp4
   SAME  69705241 Nov 24 17:00 *bitexact.*mp4
   Different  69704581 Nov 24 17:02 *global_header*.mp4
