video: drop vaapi/vdpau hw decoding support with FFmpeg 3.2
This drops support for the old libavcodec APIs. Now FFmpeg 3.3 or FFmpeg git is required. Libav has no release with the new APIs yet, so for Libav git as of a few weeks or months ago or so is required if you want to use Libav. Not much actually changes in hwdec_vaegl.c - some code is removed, but the reindentation inflates the diff.
