I prefer to enable the feature default(if libass library support) instead
of adding a new option to turn off it(default is on).
Also, if the version is right, then why to check the return?

This feature MUST NOT uncondtionally be enabled by default.
Its documentation clearly warns that it deviates from proper ASS and
is incompatible with VSFilter (the authorative ASS reference
implementation).
Even more, it should imho NEVER be enabled when the input is native ASS.
Existing ASS subtitles and authors of ASS subs (unfortunately) rely on the
existing auto-linebwrapping semantic. For writing systems not working well
with those semantics, authors of native ASS subs already manually break
lines at the appropiate places and enabling this feautre may make the
situation worse, if some lines actually overflow their supposed width.
With the established ASS breaking rules overflowing CJK lines without
spaces will not break on overflow. If they now did, you’d get a
auto-linebreak followed by a manual linebreak one or two characters later.

If subs are not native ASS and only get converted to ASS to be able to
render it with libass (like ffmpeg does), then enabling it is fine.
(Besides converted subs, some programs internally also generate ASS-like
subtitles on-the-fly and pass them to libass, with the resulting subs
never hitting the disk and being distributed, so compatibility is not a
concern. Those programs also may use this feature)

Nit: "libass wasn't built with libunibreak support" would imho be clearer.

Nit: This will print the version of libass ffmpeg was built against. This may
be confusing if later on the libass library was upgraded without needing a
rebuild and the new version _does_ support WRAP_UNCIDOE. I’d suggest
something along the lines of
  "ffmpeg was built against libass version %#x not supporting ASS_FEATURE_WRAP_UNICODE"

libass API provides WRAP_UNICODE since 0x01600010,
but at runtime the feature is only available if libass
was built against its optional dependency libunibreak.
If not attempting to enable the feature will have
no effect and ass_track_set_feature returns -1.

User may wants to scale fonts than wrap, for example. I'm not familiar with
the use case, since libass gives it as an option, I guess there is a reason for that.

To support ASS_FEATURE_WRAP_UNICODE, libass depends on libunibreak. So it
can fail if libass doesn't build with libunibreak enabled. The log messages revealed
two different failures.
