Add support for the Enhanced LRC format (A2 extension) #15190

Expected behavior of the wanted feature

MPV already supports basic LRC to have lyrics play along with a song. However it would be nice if MPV also supported the Enhanced LRC format (the A2 extension).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LRC_(file_format)#A2_extension_(Enhanced_LRC_format)

Using that extension a player like MPV can highlight each individual word when it needs to be sung, this is useful for example for karaoke.

With the format each word is wrapped around additional timestamps in the <mm:ss.xx> format. Note that there will often be an "accurate timestamp" before the first word in a sentence which is useful so the lyric can be shown on screen before the first word in it is actually sung/highlighted.

Armin van Buuren & Kensington - Heading Up High.txt

GitHub doesn't allow LRC files to be uploaded (wrong file extension) so just rename the file from .txt to .lrc.

This is a feature request for ffmpeg, once ffmpeg supports it nothing needs to be done on mpv's side to support it
