The proposed change is below, but I can't see how to use a specific version, but that may not matter. I can put in a pull request for this but wanted to feedback before I make this change to use the proposed new tar ball location for the Dockerfiles...

According to this issue https://code.videolan.org/videolan/x264/-/issues/8 H.264 tar balls are no longer updated in https://download.videolan.org/pub/videolan/x264/snapshots/x264-snapshot-20191218-README.txt.
Locally I have updated to use https://code.videolan.org/videolan/x264/-/archive/stable/x264-stable.tar.bz2. FFmpeg 5.0 was compiled with r3060 "264 - core 163 r3060 5db6aa6 - H.264/MPEG-4 AVC codec - Copyleft 2003-2021 - http://www.videolan.org/x264.html".
