Now that we can finally rename files I propose unifying this.  Since
most files whose names don't end in 'enc' are demuxers/decoders I
propose to keep the name without suffix for decoders/demuxers and use
and 'enc' suffix for encoders/muxers.

Opinions?  Otherwise I'm tempted to go ahead with this after the
weekend.
