There is an updated pull request by paper42 against master on the void-packages repository

https://github.com/paper42/void-packages ffmpeg-split-ffplay
https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/pull/32170

ffmpeg: split ffplay
ffplay depends on SDL2 which has a lot of dependencies, some systems
like servers may wish to install ffmpeg, but without ffplay to avoid
the SDL2 dependency.

I think it would be nice if ffmpeg didn't depend on ffplay, but that could break for some people. Should I remove the dependency?

#### General
- [ ] This is a new package and it conforms to the [quality requirements](https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/blob/master/Manual.md#quality-requirements)
