No loop option in the profile editor dialog

SUMMARY
There's currently no way to configure/enable looping when rendering videos.  This is annoying because I want to generate modern, looping webp videos.  Every single time I render a webp in kdenlive I have to go to the command line and run `webpmux -set loop 0 -o <webp file> <webp file>`.

A minor inconvenience, yes but still:  It would be nice if kdenlive let you set "loop" to "0" or check off "loop forever" (or similar) in the interface directly.

For reference, I tried to edit the webp rendering option (making a custom version) that output looping videos but adding "loop 0" manually to the "Additional Parameters" doesn't work.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Select 'webp' under "Image sequence" in the rendering dialog
2. There's no option to set the number of loops—even if you edit the rendering profile to make a custom version.

OBSERVED RESULT
Can't set the number of loops ☹️

EXPECTED RESULT
Can set the number of loops 😀
