This feature depends on an implementation in libvpx, which was
introduced there in February, but hasn't been included in a release of
theirs yet:
https://github.com/webmproject/libvpx/commit/5881601488ef4278d7ca2b06e2ad4d44b3063620

The named ffmpeg patch checks for availability/advertisement of this
feature when building.

What do you mean? Feel free to quote a line (refer to a proper version
of the file though).
