Hi,

this was found when an ffserver is configured to output libvpx encoded video but
the feeding ffmpeg has no libvpx support compiled in.

Subject: [PATCH] lavu/ffmpeg_opt: Check return value of
 avcodec_find_encoder().

Prevents a segfault if a stream featuring a known but unavailable codec (like 
external lib codec) should be opened.
