Just because they happen to have releases doesn't mean they have a mature 
codebase.

I'd say, if we keep the wrapper in the release, we should check for a specific 
API (==). Doesn't really matter if the wrapper's API is ahead of what's in 0.8, 
there were like 2 weeks between 0.7 and 0.8, the next one can't be more than 3 
months away.

In any event, we shouldn't ship a release with support for X265_BUILD == 7, 
10-bit encoding apparently only works properly with API 9 and later:
