Sozi image sequence export does not zero-pad sequential numbers #717

Description

@sadata7

Image sequence frames do not sort or import correctly in other programs (e.g. kdenlive) because the image sequence numbering is not zero-padded. For example, images will be sorted/imported out of sequence (see below), which is a major problem when dealing with hundreds or thousands of images.

img10.png
img100.png
img2.png
img20.png
etc.

In the meantime, I'm using a Python app I wrote to renumber the frames, but this is seriously impacting workflow having to run it every time I do an export. Image sequence numbers should be zero-padded:

img00001.png
img00002.png
img00010.png
img00020.png
img00100.png
etc.

A simple editable format string could be provided (e.g. %05d) to facilitate this.
