It appears that not all Apple implementations follow the HLS guidelines.
While the DEFAULT=NO for an audio track should be optional and default
to NO, in practice native HLS players Safari and iOS devices treat the
missing DEFAULT as a MAYBE.
Fixes#1169
Now text-based WebVTT also uses the generic media pipeline. This
converts the WebVttTextOutputHandler to a WebVttMuxer to be more
consistent with the other muxer types.
This also allows choosing between single-segment text and multi-segment.
Before, we would generate both and use single-segment for DASH and
multi-segment for HLS; but now you can choose between either and either
are supported in both DASH and HLS.

Add hls_characteristics stream descriptor, which is a colon or semi-colon
separated list of strings. It is optional.

Configurable with --transport_stream_offset_ms.
This is needed to compensate for possible negative timestamps in
inputs, which could happen on ISO-BMFF with EditLists.
Issue #112.

- EditLists in input files are parsed and applied to sample timestamps.
- An EditList will be inserted in the ISO-BMFF output if
- There is an offset between the initial presentation timestamp (pts)
and decoding timestamp (dts). Chrome, as of M67, still uses dts in
buffered range API [1], which creates various problems when buffered
range by pts does not align with buffered range by dts. There is
another bug in Chrome that applies EditList to pts only [2]. This
means that we can insert an EditList to align pts range and dts range.
- MediaSamples have negative timestamps (e.g. for Audio Priming).
You may notice the below change on some contents:
- Some media duration is reduced by one or two frames. This is because
EditList in the input file was ignored in the previous code, so video
streams start with a zero dts and a non-zero pts; the smaller of dts
and pts was used as the starting timestamp (related to the earlier
workaround for Chrome's dts bug), so the calculated duration was
actually a bit larger than the actual duration. Now with EditList
applied, the initial pts is reduced to zero, so the media duration is
also reduced to reflect the actual and correct media duration.
It may also result in negative timestamps in TS/HLS Packed Audio, which
will be addressed in a follow up CL.
Fixes#112.
Partially address b/110782437.
[1] https://crbug.com/718641, fixed but behind MseBufferByPts.
[2] https://crbug.com/354518. Chrome is planning to enable the fix for
[1] before addressing this bug, so we are safe.

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.

Having "wvtt" in the codec string (in the master playlist) causes
errors on some older Apple products. As including it is optional,
we are opted to omit it to ensure support for all Apple products.

This change has the hls master playlist add the text codec string
to the list of codecs in a variant.

Created end-to-end tests for the segmented webvtt text in HLS. The
text stream is longer than both audio and video, so there are more
text segments than video/audio.
