[opus] quality opus_demo vs opusenc

[Jean-Marc Valin]

I suspect the main difference is due to time alignment of the samples
and the exact trimming at the beginning and at the end of the encoded
files. I also note that there's a missing "--" in front of "bitrate" and
only one "-" instead of two for cvbr in your opusenc command line. Make
sure both are also linked to the same libopus (opusenc could be using
the system libopus 1.0.x while opus_demo is from git). In the end, the
quality should be almost the same, but the files won't be identical due
to minor differences in the way the first and last frame are handled.

Cheers,

	Jean-Marc
