avformat/movenc: creating producer reference time (PRFT) box
The producer reference time box supplies relative wall-clock times at which movie fragments, or files containing movie fragments (such as segments) were produced. The box is mainly useful in live streaming use cases. A media player can parse the box and utilize the time fields to measure and improve the latency during real time playout.

+@item -write_prft
+Write producer time reference box (PRFT) with a specified time source for the
+NTP field in the PRFT box. Set value as @samp{wallclock} to specify timesource
+as wallclock time and @samp{pts} to specify timesource as input packets' PTS
+values.
+
+Setting value to @samp{pts} is applicable only for a live encoding use case,
+where PTS values are set as as wallclock time at the source. For example, an
+encoding use case with decklink capture source where @option{video_pts} and
+@option{audio_pts} are set to @samp{abs_wallclock}.
