Disable MPEG2ENC by default
With MPEG2ENC enabled by default, the license is not free, and this port
cannot be packaged.
Therefore the consumers of simage cannot be packaged: among them
Coin-4.0.6 graphics/Coin simage-1.8.4
FreeCAD-1.0.2_7 cad/freecad simage-1.8.4
FreeCAD-devel-r20251228075421_1 cad/freecad-devel simage-1.8.4
py311-pivy-0.6.10 graphics/py-pivy@py311 simage-1.8.4
SoQt-1.6.4,1 x11-toolkits/soqt simage-1.8.4
visp-3.6.0_13 misc/visp simage-1.8.4
The proposed patch make MPEG2ENC optional, so that these ports should be
packageable again.
