#72281: Does scrcpy really depend on FFmpeg 4.4.5?

---------------------+--------------------
The `ffmpeg` MacPorts package distributes version 4.4.5. More recent
versions are packaged as `ffmpeg6` and `ffmpeg7`. scrcpy does not have a
dependency on a 4.x release of FFmpeg, as far as I can tell.
Alpine Linux 3.21 currently packages FFmpeg 6.1.2 while only packaging
scrcpy 3.0-rc0. Is FFmpeg 4.x somehow preferable to 6.0+, or does the
`ffmpeg` package just predate the convention of putting major version
numbers in package names? If the latter, can scrcpy's dependency be
updated to point at `ffmpeg7`?
