List of supported format

[pputnik]

Hi there, I know there's a list of formats directly in the app but sometimes you need the list to send it to someone else to select the common type of files you're going to work with.

I haven't found it in doc or repo, so I had to do it myself, grep-ing code. It'd be nice to have it in the app/doc in future versions (when the list below becomes outdated). As of Subtitle Edit 3.6.13, the list is as follows:
