Description:

Current ffmpeg package in extra have missing dependency and configuration option.

* Missing dependency
In PKGBUILD(https://projects.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/ffmpeg), VDPAU support is enabled by '--enable-vdpau' but the 'depends' list does not include 'libvdpau'. 'libvdpau' is included in the 'makedepends' only.

* Missing configuration option
Again, In PKGBUILD, the 'depends' list contains 'libva'. I think this is included for VA-API support but the './configure' option list in build() lacks '--enable-vaapi'.

So, in order to enable both of VDPAU and VA-API supports, I think next things have to be done in PKGBUILD:
1. add 'libvdpau' to 'depends' list
2. add 'libva' to 'makedepends' list
3. add '--enable-vaapi' to './configure' option list in build()


Additional info:
* 2.0.1-1


Steps to reproduce:
It is obvious from the PKGBUILD.
This task depends upon

1. ffmpeg indirectly depends on libvdpau (via libva and libegl provided by mesa)
2. depends is sufficient here, it will also be installed at build time
3. vaapi is enabled by default, that option wouldn't change anything

The only things that could be done here:
- remove libvdpau from makedepeneds since ffmpeg already depends on it
- remove --enable-vdpau since that is the default anyway

But that would not change anything either.
