add ffmpeg as gst-libs module

Since the huffyuv encoder of libav has bugs that are already solved in ffmpeg,
a possible solution is to let gst-libav use ffmpeg instead of libav.

The attached patch adds ffmpeg as a git submodule, and allows gst-libav to
compile against ffmpeg when autogen is called with '--with-ffmpeg'
