Yes, I think that's a good idea in general. That would also apply
retroactively to the custom_shader_path / custom_shader_bin options.

Typically, these LUTs are around 1MB in size, but I also have LUTs as
large as 100 MB.

Syntax-wise, my proposal would be `option=@filename.cube`, matching e.g.
`curl -F src=@filename`.
