After further inspection, it looks like libva is new enough for decode support, so we've dropped the requirement on the mesa end. Some encode features are missing on < 2.16, but as per our current RHEL8 support policy, these features are no longer supported.

Ubuntu 22.04 is still supported to have a full encode feature set, so we can't drop the libva requirement quite yet.
