ffaacenc has 1 additional AVoption compared to libfdk_aac; if that
means anything.

ffaacenc supports 1 additional sample rate (7350) compared to
libfdk_aac.

Not sure about profiles, but it certainly doesn't support HE(v2).

I didn't compare aac_at (AudioToolbox).

But as Nicolas mentioned I don't think any of that needs to be stated.
We don't do it for others.

I realize that the libfdk_aac section also has a claim which should
be removed:

I'll remove this when/if I apply the patch.
