(Feature Request) Option like --pix-format for target quality probing #1160

Description

@windigerbus

In the current version of av1an, there are the options --pix-format and --sc-pix-format. However, there is no option to change the pixel format during probing for target quality mode.

My use-case: I am using the SVT-AV1 fork SVT-AV1-Essential, which only allows 10-bit pixel formats. Currently, when I enable target quality mode, use an 8-bit source and use this encoder, it fails during probing, complaining about the input being 8-bit.

I am currently working around this by using a VapourSynth script that converts the source to 10-bit, and passing that to --proxy, as that applies to probing as well. It would be much easier to have this as a built-in feature, though.
