Details

Could we have `svt` encoders enabled in ffmpeg since they're already in `community` repository as `libavif` dependencies ?

SVT repo has pending patches for ffmpeg to enable their encoders:
SVT-AV1: https://github.com/AOMediaCodec/SVT-AV1/blob/v0.8.4/ffmpeg_plugin
SVT-VP9: https://github.com/OpenVisualCloud/SVT-VP9/tree/master/ffmpeg_plugin
SVT-HEVC: https://github.com/OpenVisualCloud/SVT-HEVC/tree/master/ffmpeg_plugin
Those patches aren't merged currently as SVT is not considered "stable":1562927539-18233-1-git-send-email-zhong.li@intel.com/#42130"> https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/patch/1562927539-18233-1-git-send-email-zhong.li@intel.com/#42130
But as we already shipping those we could perhaps enable them for ffmpeg to?
This task depends upon

Reason for closing:  Won't implement
Additional comments about closing:  Still no sign of SVT HEVC and VP9 support in ffmpeg upstream. SVT AV1 has been added. Feel free to reopen when the other 2 are officially supported.

Sorry for bugged link for ffmpeg patchwork referencing SVT plugin patches... Flyspray somewhat brakes over it.
Correct link shows only if quoted:
"https://patchwork.ffmpeg.org/project/ffmpeg/patch/1562927539-18233-1-git-send-email-zhong.li@intel.com/#42130"
Without it's broken :/

FFMPEG version 4.4 no longer needs a patch to support libsvtav1. The support can be easily enabled during the configure process
```
./configure --help | grep -i svt
--enable-libsvtav1 enable AV1 encoding via SVT [no]
```

I will not add patches that haven't been merged upstream, or even that have been merged for that matter, unless it's a bug fix. I am however currently building with svt-av1 support and will push that soon.
