Implement AC4 support

Description

Implement AC4 audio

TODO: check for possible required changes to AudioCodecHandler

Motivation and context

some months ago i seen some changes on kodi core about ac4 i made an attempt to check if it actually works unfortunately at today kodi use ffmpeg 7.1.1 and looks like there is no AC4 decoder available since avcodec_find_decoder_by_name dont return the decoder

I don't know if 7.2 will have it, seem also exists unofficial patched ffmpeg with ac4 support, but i don't think it's worth it, better wait for the official ffmpeg implementation

How has this been tested?
