Comment (by heleppkes):
specifying level only adds constraints, it does not lift them. So if you
don't specify a level, it'll use the highest required for your content.
That means that if you want to encode 5.2, there is no need to specify a
level, since it'll automatically pick one.
The only reason to specify a level is if you want to constraint yourself
to a specific level and not accidentally go over it.
The lack of th 5.2 level in nvenc_h264 should still be fixed, but its not
necessarily required to specify it.
