 Summary of the bug:

 For the h264_qsv encoder, specifying an H.264 level is quietly accepted
 (no errors or warnings) but not honored. Instead, the level is always
 automatically assigned.

 Using Staxrip as a comparison, the Intel H.264 encoder does appear to
 support user-specified levels.


 How to reproduce:

 {{{
 % ffmpeg -f lavfi -i smptebars -c:v h264_qsv -s 1920x1080 -aspect 16:9
 -profile:v high -r 29.97 -t 5 -look_ahead 0 -level 4.1 output.mp4
 }}}

 See that the resulting video is reported as Level 4 in MediaInfo rather
 than Level 4.1.
