Change subtitle selection order by giving "indirect" ways of specifying the desired subtitle track the least priority. Selection of displayed subtitles by language (-slang) and default track attribute is only performed if all other ways have failed. They are not directly controllable by the user (especially default tracks), therefore they should not override -sub, -vobsub and even auto-subs. Based on a patch by Sergey Malkovsky (mplayer.win32_gmail_com).
