well, we have quite a few things sheduled for removial with the next
major bump so while there is no need to bump major to resolve this at
all it would be an option too, accumulating old trash forever isnt good

simply providing a few dummy codecs under #if LIBAVCODEC_VERSION_INT <...
so avcodec_find_encoder_by_name() would work with the obsolete names 
would likely be a simpler solution though
