[vtkusers] Windows 10 does not support Microsoft Video 1

There is a class called vtkAVIWriter. We use this class to record the video.

https://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkAVIWriter.html

This class has a couple of methods such as PromptCompressionOptionsOn 
which allow to set whether the compressor options should be displayed, 
but I do not see any possibility to modify in detail which compressor 
options should be selectable.

My problem is that when I run our program and start capturing the video, 
it displays "Micosoft Video 1" as the first item of possible codecs to 
be used, but videos created using "Microsoft Video 1" apparently cannot 
be played by the standard video player of Windows 10. That is why I 
would like to remove this option but don't know how to do that.

Best regards,
Claus Volko
