bug in configure script prevents ivtv cvidix driver from building

Description

The cvidix:ivtv driver has nothing to do with the vo driver ivtv (See explanation in the link above, where I already posted the bug without getting any attention)

Unfortunately the mplayer configure script checks for a wrong dependency:

test "$_vidix_drivers"
_vidix_drivers="cyberblade ivtv mach64 mga

mga_crtc2 nvidia pm2 pm3 radeon rage128 s3 sh_veu sis unichrome"

test $_ivtv = "yes"
_vidix_drivers=echo $_vidix_drivers | sed s/ivtv//

The second check means that in case the vo driver ("ivtv") is disabled, the
cvidix ivtv subdriver will also be removed from the list of drivers. This is
wrong, because with a recent kernel vo ivtv will always be disabled, because this is an obsolete driver. The current ivtv vo driver is named v4l2, but again: For cvidix:ivtv there should be no dependency to vo ivtv or vo v4l2.

The second test line should be removed without replacement.
