Description Jordan Petridis 2018-09-10 16:56:23 UTC 
When trying to build with -Dvorbis=enabled to get the libgstvorbis.so plugin, meson refuses to continue unless Tremor dependency is also provided.

nirbheek on irc said it would be prefferable to split it into 2 features, -Dvorbis and -Dtremor since tremor is only useful for embedded devices

meson: Add an option for the 'Tremor' Vorbis implementation

It makes sense to control it explicitly to allow us to enable it on
platforms that don't have hardware floating-point, and to allow people
to enable the 'vorbis' plugin without having to also provide the
Tremor dependency which is useless on most devices.
