faac: proposal to solve conflict with mpeg4ip/libmp4v2

Port: faac

Description (last modified by dbevans (David B. Evans))

faac and mpeg4ip conflict (#13879) because they both try to install versions of libmp4v2 by default. The attached patch proposes a solution to this problem by asking faac to use an external version of this library rather than use its embedded version.

In addition, a dependency is added that allows either mpeg4ip or libmp4v2 to provide this functionality. libmp4v2 is now widely used instead of mpeg4ip because of reputed license problems with mpeg4ip that libmp4v2 avoids.

Since mpeg4ip is no longer available publicly (only on MacPorts distfiles mirror) mpeg4ip should probably be retired in favor of libmp4v2 when all current dependents have switched to libmp4v2.
