This allows ending up with a normal, non-fragmented file when

This results in a file where the mdat atom contains (and hides)
all the moof atoms that were part of the fragmented file structure
initially.

v2: Made the flag implicitly set FF_MOV_FLAG_FRAGMENT (as it makes
no sense without it).
Updated the description of the flag to "Write a fragmented file that
is converted to non-fragmented at the end".
Kept the flag named "hide_fragments", but I'm also pondering if we
maybe should go for a name like "hybrid_fragmented" or so, as a
better description of _what_ it produces, as opposed to _how_ it
does things. (One could also consider "hybrid_mp4", but even if mp4
is the main thing, the same also goes for mov and a bunch of other
related formats.)
I'd otherwise want to push this, but I'm not entirely satisfied with
the option name quite yet. I'm pondering if we should call it
"hybrid_fragmented" - any opinions, Dennis or Timo?
How about `resilient_mode` or `recoverable`?
I agree that the how is secondary.

Gyan
