Please don't introduce any symlinks. These symlinks make the
Haiku/Beos driver loading needlessly complicated already.
The media kit really doesn't need additional symlinks.

Using a windows-like filter API that allows chaining of codecs and
containers would be a huge improvement, and allows better handling
of mp3-in-wav-in-avi chains or decoding and filters like deinterlace.
However, I currently don't have the time for such large changes.
