this is not possible currently libfaac is twice as fast than the
native encoder.

time ./ffmpeg -v 0 -i matrixbench_mpeg2.mpg -vn -c:a libfaac -y test.aac
real    0m2.828s
user    0m2.776s
sys     0m0.048s

time ./ffmpeg -v 0 -i matrixbench_mpeg2.mpg -vn -y test.aac
real    0m5.908s
user    0m5.856s
sys     0m0.048s
