in the same direction. However, the question is this:

Should the one who explicitly set `-aac_at_quality 0` (highest quality 
available) be moved from HIGH to MAX,
HOWEVER causing the side effect of moving everyone up in the quality-speed 
tradeoff by one,

(or we can eliminate HIGH and just replace it with MAX which has no tradeoffs 
AFAIK)

OR add `-1`, so that only those who entered no `aac_at_quality` be moved to -1,
and keeping explicit people having set `-aac_at_quality 0` at HIGH for them,
although they might have meant MAX when they started using it?
(i.e. no regression nor improvement for them)

The strictly correct approach here would be to add version guards, and switch to the new behaviour next major bump. I do agree though that that seems a bit over the top for this, and specially if there is a higher quality than what ffmpeg currently offers, I could definitely see keeping 0 as "highest possible quality".
