[Cin] ffmpeg 7.0 soon to be released

[Phyllis Smith]

FFmpeg 7.0 checked into GIT (previous version 6.1) thanks to Andrew
updating numerous patches in ffmpeg plus another bunch in the cinelerra
subdirectory (5 or so).  And thanks to Andrea and others for all of the
testing and problem reporting.  If Andrew and Andrea can verify I did not
make any mistakes on checking it in, that would be highly appreciated!
