avformat/dashenc: Added an option to ignore io errors

When dashenc has to run for long duration(say 24x7 live stream), one can enable this option to ignore the io failure of few segment's upload due to an intermittent network issues.
When the network connection recovers dashenc will continue with the upload of the current segments, leading to the recovery of the stream.
