Subject: [PATCH] Make H.264 codec optional during runtime

It's possible that FreeRDP was built against FFmpeg, but it doesn't support
H.264. In that case, just continue without H.264 support instead of failing
hard before even trying to connect.

This is especially useful for Linux distributions which can't ship H.264
support in FFmpeg out of the box (patent issues), but allow enabling H.264
later by installing a version of FFmpeg which has it enabled.
