It turns out I've been going about this all wrong.  I don't need to
cap the bitrates further I just need a way to be able to get the max
bitrate and then add under 10% of that to the master playlist.  I
decided to run a video through Elastic Transcoder and then test it
with Media Stream Validator.

Below are the results for the 400K, 1M and 2M presents on Elastic
Transcoder. The 400k has an average of 474K with a 668k max.  The 1M
has an average of 1131K with a 2006K max.  The 2M has a 2234k average
with a 4217K max.  Then they're added to the playlist as 608k, 1825k
and 3835k.

How can I get the max bitrate using ffmpeg to automate the creation of
my master playlist?  Currently I have to just guess the max bitrate
then run the stream though Media Stream Validator to get the max and
then edit my master playlist with what it shows.
