A way to disable the VLC dependency?

[escalade]

As this is the only maintained ES fork around at the moment (except for recalbox), it would be nice if the VLC dependency was optional. While a nice feature to have it adds 50MB because of needing VLC. I'm using this in my LibreELEC fork, and space is sparse. I guess I could reverse the commits but that will quickly get messy.

If you submit a clean PR with the facility to disable it without affecting anything else, I will incorporate it. But since the focus of this ES is for RetroPie, it's not something I will be doing.

or use FFMPEG

FFMPEG isn't an option, libvlc is a requirement at this point. I'm not a developer, so this was more of a feature request :)
