Urp! It just broke on Debian

libbase/embedVideoDecoderFfmpeg.cpp:27:28: error: ffmpeg/swscale.h: No
such file or directory

No current Debian package contains a file called "swscale.h".
In the experimental version there is a new "libswscale-dev" package
which is built from the ffmpeg sources and which contains
ffmpeg/swscale.

On the next Debian you can have a recent ffmpeg installed without
img_convert in it, but without libswscale-dev package installed
either, so just checking for ffmpeg/swscale.h presence to determine
which code to use is no good;
I think it has to be ffmpeg version-based, probably followed by a
check for swscale.h presence if the version is recent enough.
