We used to use the target segment duration provided by the user.
Unfortunately that does not work for iframe only playlist which
the target duration is effectively equal to the GOP duration.
In the new approach, we estimate the target duration from the initial
few blocks (10 blocks right now).
Fixes#610.

Segment start,end time was used previously, which could result in
problems if there are discontinuity in the streams. E.g. if the
stream has timestamp, 10000, 10001, 10002 and then next segment
comes in with timestamp 1. With the previous logic, all the segments
would remain in the time shift buffer until after 10000 segments
even with a small time shift buffer depth of 10.
This could also happen when timestamp wraps around, which could
happen during long time of live streaming.
This change will also be useful to support multi-period live DASH.

The peak segment bit rate of a Media Playlist is the largest bit rate
of any contiguous set of segments whose total duration is between 0.5
and 1.5 times the target duration.

Instead, caclulating average bandwidth by dividing the sum of the
sizes of every segment by the sum of the durations of every segment.
This aligns with the requirement in HLS spec:
https://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-pantos-http-live-streaming-23 4.1.
BandwidthEstimator is also simplified to handle all blocks only.

Configurable under flag --use_legacy_vp9_codec_string, which defaults

It is not always possible to align segment duration to target duration
exactly. For example, for AAC with sampling rate of 44100, there are
always 1024 audio frames per sample, so the sample duration is
1024/44100. For a target duration of 2 seconds, the closest segment
duration would be 1.984 or 2.00533.
This feature allows MPD generator to treat these segments as having
the same duration, thus allows MPD generator to generate less
SegmentTimeline entries and potentially no SegmentTimeline entries
(replaced with SegmentTemplate@duration instead if
--segment_template_constant_duration flag is enabled).
Under flag --allow_approximate_segment_timeline. Disabled by default.

The file_name fields will be used to solely indicate file paths on the
designated file system, and they are used to do normal file operations,
including file creation, file updating and file removal if needed;
added new xxx_url fields, for the URLs that should appear on DASH
manifest or HLS playlists.
xxx_url are the URIs of the media in the manifest. The fields are
converted from file_name fields but adjusted to be relative to DASH
manifest path or HLS playlist path, optionally with base_url prepended.
Previously the file_name fields are converted in place to indicate
URLs when passing to manifest / playlist builders. The original file
names were lost, which made it difficult to remove files outside of
live window.
Now that the input file names are preserved. File system APIs can
operate on the original file names while manifest / playlist generation
functions can operate on URLs.

According to DASH spec (23009-1:2014):
Consider a hypothetical constant bitrate channel of
bandwidth with the value of this attribute in bits per second
(bps). Then, if the Representation is continuously delivered
at this bitrate, starting at any SAP that is indicated either by
@startwithsap or by any Segment Index box, a client can
be assured of having enough data for continuous playout
providing playout begins after @minbuffertime *
@bandwidth bits have been received (i.e. at time
@minbuffertime after the first bit is received).
For dependent Representations this value specifies the
bandwidth according to the above definition for the
aggregation of this Representation and all complementary
Representations.
This suggests that max bitrate should be used instead of average
bitrate.
Also cleaned up BandwidthEstimator code.
Fixes#376.

This flag was introduced to workaround a rounding error in Chrome
(probably in other browsers too).
Also although this flag avoids the first frame of a Period to be
dropped due to rounding error but it could cause the last frame of a
Period to be dropped.
Now that we use a high precision Period@duration, we do not expect to
see rounding errors any more. The player would be a better place for
the workaround even if it is still needed.

Prefer timestamps from Video AdaptationSets if available - this avoids
possible video playback jitters due to gaps.
presentationTimeOffset is not applied to the first period as it may in
negative dts which Chrome does not like: https://crbug.com/398141.
It is safe to apply to subsequent periods as the actual offset applied
takes Period@start into consideration:
offset = Period@start - presentationTimeOffset
The result timestamp with offset applied is close to Period@start, so
it is unlikely to result in a negative dts value.

Also added Period::GetAdaptationSets and
AdaptationSet::GetRepresentations.
Instead of implementing GetDurationSeconds in all MpdBuilder classes
(MpdBuilder/Period/Adaptation/Representation) like what we used to do
with GetEarliestTimestamp, the two new functions allows MpdBuilder to
iterate through the Representations to get durations.
Also updates GetEarliestTimestamp functions to use the same iteration
method.
