Subject: build: require recent libass

Nobody should use an older version. It's perfectly backwards and forward
compatible, so distros have no excuse not to package a recent version.
Older versions lack tons of bug fixes (some of them crashing bugs, and
potentially security relevant).

With love to Debian, which is still on 0.10.2.
