      The internal encoder is superior to libvo-aacenc.

      avcodec: Remove libaacplus · 9ba54c1b

      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 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):
