#6800 new enhancement

Keep MOV tags in "meta" atom during transcode

Description

Some tags in "moov"/"udta" atom (e.g. "©nam", but not "©src") are kept during a transcode from MOV to MOV, but all tags in "moov"/"meta" atom are discarded, despite the fact they are listed in the Output section during transcode:

How to reproduce:

% ffmpeg -i input.mov output.mov

same with " -map_metadata 0".

metadata from "meta" atom should be kept (mapped to the output file), preferably by default ("ffmpeg -i input.mov output.mov") or with " -map_metadata 0".

File with "udta" and "meta" atoms attached.
