There is really no need for two aac wrappers, we already have
libfdk-aac which is better. Not to mention that faac doesn't
even support HEv1, or HEv2. It's also under a license which is
unusable for distribution, so it would only be useful to people
who will compile their own ffmpeg, only use it themselves (which
at that point should just use fdk-aac).

The 10-bit decoding support is available now in native decoder.

The changes in "Incompatible libraries" section are strictly based on
what our configure script says.

TODO: bump minor

It's inferior in quality to fdk-aac and has an arguably more problematic
license.

As early as 2012, a HydrogenAudio user reported:

> It has however one huge advantage: much better quality at low bitrates than
> faac and libaacplus.

(https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?PHPSESSID=ckiq394pdglka0kj2fin6ij8t7&topic=95989.msg804633#msg804633)

I myself have made a few spectrograms for a comparison of the two
encoders as well. The FDK output is consistently better than the
libaacplus one, in all bitrates I tested.

libaacplus license is 3GPP + LGPLv2. 3GPP copyright notice is completely
proprietory, as follows:

> No part may be reproduced except as authorized by written permission.
>
> The copyright and the foregoing restriction extend to reproduction in
> all media.

> All rights reserved.

(The latest 26410-d00 zip from 3GPP has the same notice, but the copyright
year is changed to 2015)

The copyright part of the FDK AAC license (section 2) is a copyleft
license that permits redistribution under certain conditions (and
therefore the LGPL + libfdk-aac combination is not prohibited by
configure):

Speed of all modes increased by a factor between 7.4 and 19.8 largely depending
on whether bytes are unpacked into words.  Modes 2, 3, and 4 have been sped-up
by a factor of 43 (thanks quick sort!)

All modes are available on x86_64 but only modes 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 19, 20,
21, and 22 are available on x86 due to the number of SIMD registers used.

The only difference with mp=pp7 is that default mode is "medium", as stated
in the MPlayer docs, rather than "hard".

From 1.8 to 2.4 times faster.  Runtime is reduced by 2 to 39%.  The
speed-up generally increases with compression_level.

This lpc encoder is not used with levels < 3 so it provides no speed-up
in these cases.
