I have no idea why I never opened this PR, I did the initial commit nearly a year ago and then just forgot about it apparently. But, that's OK, as it gave me a chance to go back and add the hardware presets as well, just now.

This PR creates greater parity between our MKV (Matroska) preset offerings — of which there were previously, like, two — and our MP4 preset offerings, which are extensive.

Every format_mp4_x64*.xml preset is cloned into an equivalent format_mkv_x264*.xml preset, with only the title and container format changed.

(TBH we should probably do something like what Handbrake does, and just let the user select between MP4 container and MKV container for every MP4 preset, since the containers are virtually interchangeable. Then we'd have a lot less preset clutter, instead of a bit more like this will introduce. But, it's worth giving people options IMHO.)

I feel like this was in response to a request someone made in an Issue, or something, but I'm not going to try and find it because Stale would've closed it long ago anyway.

- Clone every `format_mp4_x64*.xml` preset into an equivalent
  `format_mkv_x264*.xml` preset, with only the title and
  container format changed.
