Linux Distributions like openSUSE does not bundle open source H264 encoder/decoder due to licensing issues: https://news.opensuse.org/2023/01/24/opensuse-simplifies-codec-install/. The distribution developers suggested to use the "dlopen" mode to load H264 symbols at runtime, similiar to libfreerdp: https://github.com/FreeRDP/FreeRDP/blob/master/libfreerdp/codec/h264_openh264.c
This PR adds a compile option
TG_OWT_DLOPEN_H264
to usedlopen()
and load H264 library at runtime instead of at compile time.
