Dear Maintainer,

As discussed in #1131579, the libffmpeg-ocaml ABI does not encompass all
the ABI details of ffmpeg that it depends on.  This is a problem because
it means that changes to the underlying ffmpeg library can cause thngs
that depend on libffmpeg-ocaml to break, even if the ABI of
libffmpeg-ocaml hasn't changed.
