Yeah, the proper place for an explanation as to why we're doing this
is not APIChanges.

Sounds good. Maybe also mention the lavf/lavu versions we're "matching"
with this change (lavf 57.32.100 and lavu 55.17.100 i think) and not just
the ffmpeg version. APIChanges is after all about the libraries.
