aacenc_tns: disable coefficient compression by default

Too much effort and work has been spent on such a simple function.
It simply refuses to work as the specifications say, the
transformation is NOT lossless and creates some crackling and
distortions.
Therefore disable it by default and add a couple of warnings to
scare people away from touching it or wasting their time the
way I did.
