Description:
some video sites require external (not provided by tor-firefox) codecs;
you will get this message/banner on top of those sites: "To play video, you may need to install the required video codecs."

Installing `ffmpeg4.4` package fixes the issue.

I think we can easily list it as optional dependency.

Additional info:
* torbrowser-launcher-0.3.6-1 (Firefox ESR 12.0.4 (based on Mozilla Firefox 102.9.0esr))

Steps to reproduce:
* try to play a Twitter video [https://twitter.com/kdrag0n/status/1493088558676017152]
