This is a very good news - VLC was missign from buildroot for so long
and now it's there.

Frankly these days I don't [need to] use VLC on embedded devices so I
don't really have any requirements for any extra configurability of VLC
in buildroot.

As soon as I face any lacking option I'll submit a new patch.

Thank you guys so much for driving development of U-Boot!
