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.

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.

(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):
