build: ffmpeg 8 support (#4870)

* Try a build against ffmpeg 8 -- seems to work out of the box, so
  document that we support that version in INSTALL.md.
* Augment FindFFmpeg.cmake to correctly identify 7.1 and 8.0 by the
  very non-intuitive versioning scheme of ffmpeg's headers.
* Add a FFMPEG_EXTRA_LIBRARIES variable to FindFFmpeg.cmake to allow
  us to easily inject extra library dependencies (coincidentally, I
  need this at work to force it to use static libraries).
