doc/ffplay,ffmpeg: mention the corresponding negated option for -stats

This helps lazy users who didn't read the part about boolean options, in
case they grep for "-nostats".

-stdin and -stats are the only booleans option enabled by default. This
is a partial fix for Trac ticket #2332, a complete overhaul of boolean
options documentation is probably overkill.
