[Paraview] MJPEG instead of MPEG4 (issue 8925)

[Michael Wild]

Thanks Berk and David for the prompt answer.

Licensing certainly is a good reason. But then, mjpeg produces much  
larger movies. Every frame is a key-frame. How about offering a choice  
between mjpeg and ogg/theora in the export dialog?
