Would be nice to compile a "light" version, which supports only stream copying #44

Hi! In my opinion it would be nice and useful to compile and provide a "light" version too, which supports only the stream copying mode of ffmpeg (-c copy). For example when saving online audio streams, or saving radio programmes from live streams. Folks usually use such a simple commands to save from online audio streams: ffmpeg -i http://stream.example.com/stream_20160518_0630.mp3 -c copy -t 3600 programme.mp3

Then it would be possible to provide those saveable streams on a webpage by pure Javascript, and without a costly server backend. Is it possible to compile this subset of FFMpeg into Javascript for myself?
