avformat/avisynth: remove atexit() handler

The atexit() handler in the avisynth demuxer was added because
there was a conflict in AvxSynth that arose due to their use
of C++ global objects, particularly in relation to having
added a logging function relying on log4cpp.

This conflict was responsible for causing a segfault on exit.
It did not affect Windows with the (at the time) upstream
AviSynth 2.5 and 2.6, nor does it affect AviSynth+.

Unfortunately, none of this was actually shielded by ifdefs
indicating the fact it was only needed for AvxSynth, so four
years ago when AviSynth+ replaced AvxSynth as the handler
for AviSynth scripts on Unix-like OSes, the fact that the
atexit handler was no longer necessary was overlooked.
