It would be a good idea to at least warn or ideally error out if parsing
the file fails (in which case, this function returns NULL).

Putting this function here will cause it to get called every time any of
the settings change, which could in principle be very frequent.

I would either embed a lightweight check to see if the filename matches the
currently loaded filename, or else move this to the init() section and change
it from DYNAMIC to STATIC, like how the custom shaders are handled.

Nit: Change it to "Path to custom LUT file to apply", since it takes a filename

New option is missing an entry in doc/filters.texi
