ffmpeg can generate lookup tables at build time instead of runtime, but this is
no longer a recommended option.  The size impact is significant (12% of the
total libavcodec size, nearly 2MB), the runtime impact of dynamic tables isn't
too costly, and only a few codecs actually use the pre-generated tables (MP3,
notably).

I think it will be good to understand the performance impact with some
low end non-x86 device
as for now, it will be better to turn this into a packageconfig knob
instead of just removing the
option
