Enable AV1 decode via FFmpeg 5.0

Why only ffmpeg 5? Ffmpeg 4.4.1 (58) is also capable of AV1 decode.

No likelihood of going with 5.0.1? Seems to have fixed a lot of issues: https://www.videohelp.com/software/ffmpeg/version-history

unfortunately ffmpeg changed the API again and not all apps do build with 5.0+. At least opencascade does not. Hopefully if RedHat start shipping ffmpeg 5 with their new release issues will be gone

Ffmpeg 4.4.1 provides AV1 but it's still 58 and not all 58 versions support AV1.

Does 5.0.1 have the same API as 5.0? If so it will be supported as we use system ffmpeg.

Applied patches from Martin to 100beta8 and using with ffmpeg 5.0.1 and ffvpx disabled. Works perfect so far.

That's great news.
