Kacper Michajłow 33d5616fbe ffbuild: show install destinations in the INSTALL build output
The INSTALL pretty-printer echoed the rule prerequisites ($^), which
printed duplicate and phony names and never showed the destination.

Convert the install recipes to an INSTALL_FILES helper that receives the
install options, source files and destination as separate arguments. In
quiet mode it prints one "source -> destination" line per installed
file.

FFmpeg examples README
----------------------

Both following use cases rely on pkg-config and make, thus make sure
that you have them installed and working on your system.


Method 1: build the installed examples in a generic read/write user directory

Copy to a read/write user directory and run:
make -f Makefile.example

It will link to the libraries on your system, assuming the PKG_CONFIG_PATH is
correctly configured.

Method 2: build the examples in-tree

Assuming you are in the source FFmpeg checkout directory, you need to build
FFmpeg (no need to make install in any prefix). Then just run "make examples".
This will build the examples using the FFmpeg build system. You can clean those
examples using "make examplesclean"

If you want to try the dedicated Makefile examples (to emulate the first
method), go into doc/examples and run a command such as
PKG_CONFIG_PATH=pc-uninstalled make -f Makefile.example
