[FFmpeg-devel] [PATCH v5 01/10] configure: ensure --enable-libmfx uses libmfx 1.x

[Haihao Xiang]

Intel's oneVPL is a successor to MediaSDK, but removed some obsolete
features of MediaSDK[1]. Some early versions of oneVPL still uses libmfx
as library name[2], however some of obsolete features, including OPAQUE
memory, multi-frame encode, user plugins and LA_EXT rate control mode
etc, have been enabled in QSV, so user can not use --enable-libmfx to
enable QSV if using an early version of oneVPL SDK. In order to make
sure user builds FFmpeg against a right version of libmfx, this patch
added a check for the version of libmfx and warning message about the
used obsolete features.
