Is that a cross-compile package of SDL2? Likely not.

Well, this error misses exactly what it's saying: SDL.h. It doesn't know
where to look for it. At a later stage - if it passed this one - it
will look for a libSDL2.so which is built for the target platform, and
again fail. (The libsdl2-dev named above probably does not provide the
libraries for your ARM target.)

Yes.

No

In the case of sdl2 support, ffmpeg's configure script first checks
availability of SDL2's own "sdl-config" script, then pkg-config. It
does *not* provide the possibility to find the SDL2 headers and libs
with the use of "--extra-{c,ld}flags", as far as I can tell. Your trick
above may help though. (You still need the target libs!)

To me, ffplay is not really a "player of choice". OTOH, building
alternatives like mplayer or mpv for your target may be even more
tricky. Can you not find pre-built packages for your target? (And then
just build ffmpeg for yourself.)
