audio/video: Copy more metas by default in the codec base classes

For audio we copy metas that have no tags at all, or that only have the
"audio" and/or "audio-channels" tag. Audio codecs don't change the
audio aspect of the stream and in almost all cases don't change the
number of channels. They might however change the sample rate (e.g.
Opus). Subclasses that change the number of channels will have to
override ::transform_meta() accordingly.

For video we copy metas that have no tags at all, or that only have the
"video" and/or "video-size" and/or "video-orientation" tag. Video codecs
don't change the "video" aspect of the stream and in almost all cases
don't change the resolution or orientation. Subclasses that rescale or
change the orientation will have to override ::transform_meta()
accordingly.
