It's really the same situation as Windows: users get the FFmpeg build 
from whoever builds it with AviSynth support enabled, and if they want 
to use that functionality, they can install the official release of 
AviSynth+ that we provide upstream.  The .dll situation on Windows is 
one of several reasons for the use of dlopen, as well.

That's why with 3.7.0 I started providing macOS builds in the releases 
in both installer .pkg and -filesonly tarball form, since I know some 
people prefer doing it that way.
