Joe Schiffler 0457aaf0d3 configure: Include quotes around pkg_version
In some MSYS environments it can happen that the 3 argument syntax
for pkg-config library specifications fails because somehow the
expansion of pkg_version ends up with a redirection we guess.

To avoid failures like in the referenced build[2], we quote it
so the whole module including operators will be expanded into
a single shell word and the single argument syntax for specifying
the library for pkg-config will be used.

The single argument syntax seems to be supported by the original
pkg-config from the beginning more than 20 years[3].

In the pkgconf implementation single argument syntax was supported
pretty much from the beginning as well. The multiple argument syntax
we used until this change, was not supported until a change[4] more
than 10 years ago.

3. Earliest commit of the current pkg-config Git repo already mentions the single argument syntax:

4. pkgconf gets support for 3 argument syntax (pkgconf --exists liba = 1.2.3):

FFmpeg README

FFmpeg is a collection of libraries and tools to process multimedia content such as audio, video, subtitles and related metadata.

Libraries

  • libavcodec provides implementation of a wider range of codecs.
  • libavformat implements streaming protocols, container formats and basic I/O access.
  • libavutil includes hashers, decompressors and miscellaneous utility functions.
  • libavfilter provides means to alter decoded audio and video through a directed graph of connected filters.
  • libavdevice provides an abstraction to access capture and playback devices.
  • libswresample implements audio mixing and resampling routines.
  • libswscale implements color conversion and scaling routines.

Tools

  • ffmpeg is a command line toolbox to manipulate, convert and stream multimedia content.
  • ffplay is a minimalistic multimedia player.
  • ffprobe is a simple analysis tool to inspect multimedia content.
  • Additional small tools such as aviocat, ismindex and qt-faststart.
