The initial idea was to get the DAB+ patch into upstream, but since
that follows the android source releases, there is no place for a custom
DAB+ patch there.
So instead of having to maintain a patched fdk-aac that has to have the
same .so version as the distribution package on which it is installed,
we prefer having a separate fdk-aac-dab library to avoid collision.
At that point, there's no reason to keep fdk-aac in a separate
repository, as odr-audioenc is the only tool that needs DAB+ encoding
support. Including it here simplifies installation, and makes it
consistent with toolame-dab, also shipped in this repository.
DAB+ decoding support (needed by ODR-SourceCompanion, dablin, etisnoop,
welle.io and others) can be done using upstream FDK-AAC.
