ipfs support makes sense to be added to ffmpeg. ive seen ipfs urls and ive
already been annoyed that some tools dont "just" work with them.
While if i compare this to many other formats which i have never seen
outside the context of FFmpeg. So from this biased single sample that i
am, ipfs seems more widespread and thats why iam in favor of its support

thx
