Missing information about detailed metadata on video and audio files if ffprobe is installed #2014

The docs are missing a section that informs about the implications of having ffprobe installed. If ffprobe is installed, file records of videos hold information about the duration and frame size and file records of audio hold information about the duration.

I was about to use webhooks to mimic that functionality when i came across this in the source. I think it's quite a nice feature that should be mentioned in the docs.

In my opinion it should be mentioned in the Installation section as well as in the File API Reference section. I will make a PR if you see the need.

Thank you, I've also added this to the next repo so it's considered for Directus 9
