9ba54c1b82 avcodec: Remove libaacplus
TODO: bump minor

It's inferior in quality to fdk-aac and has an arguably more problematic
license.

As early as 2012, a HydrogenAudio user reported:

> It has however one huge advantage: much better quality at low bitrates than
> faac and libaacplus.

(https://hydrogenaud.io/index.php?PHPSESSID=ckiq394pdglka0kj2fin6ij8t7&topic=95989.msg804633#msg804633)

I myself have made a few spectrograms for a comparison of the two
encoders as well. The FDK output is consistently better than the
libaacplus one, in all bitrates I tested.

libaacplus license is 3GPP + LGPLv2. 3GPP copyright notice is completely
proprietory, as follows:

> No part may be reproduced except as authorized by written permission.
>
> The copyright and the foregoing restriction extend to reproduction in
> all media.
>
> © 2008, 3GPP Organizational Partners (ARIB, ATIS, CCSA, ETSI, TTA, TTC).
>
> All rights reserved.

(The latest 26410-d00 zip from 3GPP has the same notice, but the copyright
year is changed to 2015)

The copyright part of the FDK AAC license (section 2) is a copyleft
license that permits redistribution under certain conditions (and
therefore the LGPL + libfdk-aac combination is not prohibited by
configure):

bff7242608 avfilter/vf_removegrain: add x86 and x86_64 SSE2 functions
Speed of all modes increased by a factor between 7.4 and 19.8 largely depending
on whether bytes are unpacked into words.  Modes 2, 3, and 4 have been sped-up
by a factor of 43 (thanks quick sort!)

All modes are available on x86_64 but only modes 1, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 19, 20,
21, and 22 are available on x86 due to the number of SIMD registers used.

a299cd5ab3 lavfi: port mp=pp7 to libavfilter
The only difference with mp=pp7 is that default mode is "medium", as stated
in the MPlayer docs, rather than "hard".

0081a14e7d lavc/flacenc: add sse4 version of the 16-bit lpc encoder
From 1.8 to 2.4 times faster.  Runtime is reduced by 2 to 39%.  The
speed-up generally increases with compression_level.

This lpc encoder is not used with levels < 3 so it provides no speed-up
in these cases.
