fix #26276: cv::VideoWriter fails writing colorless images #27153 When writing grayscale images (`isColor=false`), `cv::VideoWriter` failed as FFmpeg backend requires input frames to be in a grayscale format. Unlike other backends, FFmpeg doesn't perform this conversion internally and expects the input to be pre-converted. To fix this, I inserted a check in the `CvVideoWriter_FFMPEG_proxy::write` to convert input frames to grayscale when the input has more than 1 channel. If this is true, then the input is converted to a gray image using `cv::cvtColor` (with `cv::COLOR_BGR2GRAY`). Additionally, as suggested in the issue comments, I have correctly propagated the return value of `CvVideoWriter_FFMPEG::writeFrame` back to the `CvVideoWriter_FFMPEG_proxy::write`. This return value wasn't being used, and `writeFrame` was always returning false since the FFmeg's return code `AVERROR(EAGAIN)` was mistakenly being treated as an error. Now it's handled as a signal for additional input (current input was successfully written, and a new frame should be sent. [See FFmpeg documentation for `avcodec_receive_packet`](https://ffmpeg.org/doxygen/6.1/group__lavc__decoding.html)). A warning is displayed if `CvVideoWriter_FFMPEG::writeFrame` returns false. Alternatively, this could be propagated back up to the user, making cv::VideoWriter::write a boolean. Finally, I added a test case to verify if the grayscale conversion is being done correctly.
