Pull request overview
This PR removes the dav1d AV1 decoder and its Rust bindings (rust-dav1d, rust-dav1d-sys) from the Azure Linux distro, and updates key dependents (libavif, librsvg2, rust-rav1e) to avoid relying on dav1d.
Changes:
- Removed dav1d and Rust binding components/specs/locks/sources.
- Updated
libavifto disable the dav1d codec (aom remains enabled by default in the spec). - Updated
librsvg2to disable AVIF support andrust-rav1eto stop enabling dav1d-related build/test flags; added new component overlay files for these changes.

Changes themselves look good. Please break the changes into separate smaller commits:
- libavif changes
- librsvg2 changes
- rust-rav1e changes
- remove dav1d, rust-dav1d, rustdav1d-sys
Doing it this way will ensure the autochangelog render describes the alterations made to that specific package.

Thanks for making the adjustments! One minor remaining adjustment needed, then we should be good to merge.

Disable dav1d decoder and remove its BuildRequires. The aom codec (already enabled) provides equivalent AV1 decode support. Move libavif from inline components.toml entry to dedicated comp.toml with overlays.
Unconditionally disable AVIF in the meson build (was already disabled for RHEL). AVIF-in-SVG is an extremely niche use case for a cloud distro. Move librsvg2 from inline components.toml entry to dedicated comp.toml with overlays.
Remove the dav1d AV1 decoder library and its Rust bindings from the distro. All dependents have been updated in prior commits to no longer reference dav1d. Remove dav1d from components-publish-channels.toml base-packages.
