seperate ids would enable users to independently disable the decoder.
but other than that, i don't know what value this brings.

the codecs are very similar. even the reference implementation only uses the
version field to distinguish them. if i change a true VP3 file to use the
'VP40' fourcc, it decodes correctly. if i change a true VP4 file to use
the 'VP31' fourcc, it also decodes correctly.
