[vlc] How to shrink vlc binary size

[hu senbo]

Hi everybody,

I recently compiled vlc by myself for customization because I want my vlc as
small as possible.
Therefore I disable many options and --disable-static --enable-shared.
After successfully compiled and installed, I find that the size of vlc
executable binary is
so big about 9.6MB. And I find the vlc binary in the debian package is small
(about 1.2MB).
Could anyone give some suggestions that how to make vlc binary as small as
possible?

The following is my configure option.
