There was already some discussion about that here:
https://issues.guix.gnu.org/68250

It seems like once the pkgconf stuff is merged, mpv can be built as a
shared library, move the propagated-inputs to inputs, and meson will
output the correct pkg-config file without breaking downstream
dependencies. Not sure though.
