adds an optional `--hls_start_time_offset` parameter, that, when
used, adds `EXT-X-START` tags to the HLS media playlists.
The EXT-X-START tag allows to specify the location where the player
starts playing, either from start (positive value) or from end (negative
value).
This is especially useful in case of livestreams where this tag can be
used to set the target latency of the playback.
Reference: https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8216#section-4.3.5.2
The RFC says, that the `EXT-X-START` tag could also be added to the
master playlist, but my tests have shown that most players only respect
it when it's in the media playlists.

protobuf depends on absl, so both needed an update.
Updating absl fixes issues on Alpine 3.19 (see PR #1327), and also
removes the need for hacks around vlog flags.
A positive value, in milliseconds. It is the threshold used to determine
if we should assume that the text stream actually starts at time zero.
If the first sample comes before default_text_zero_bias_ms, then the
start will be padded as the stream is assumed to start at zero. If the
first sample comes after default_text_zero_bias_ms then the start of the
stream will not be padded as we cannot assume the start time of the
stream.
As part of the CMake port we updated the duration formatting to contain
maximum of 6 decimal places but without trailing 0s. There was a bug
however where it used 6 significant digits rather than 6 decimal places
(`%g` rather than `%f`).
This fixes the bug and also updates the MPD sample files for the
integration tests to contain maximum of 6 decimal places.
The current libwebm integration test samples contain `libwebm-0.2.1`
however we have updated to a newer version of libwebm so we need to
update the samples.
As of `libwebm-0.3.0` this signature has been frozen so we won't have to
do this again.
This work was done over ~80 individual commits in the `cmake` branch,
which are now being merged back into `main`. As a roll-up commit, it is
too big to be reviewable, but each change was reviewed individually in
context of the `cmake` branch. After this, the `cmake` branch will be
renamed `cmake-porting-history` and preserved.

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
The generate_version_string script was only producing correct results
in python 2, not python 3. The gyp file that references it explicitly
runs it in python3. The shebang line of the script has been updated
to match. The script itself has been updated such that it now works
correctly in both python2 and python3.
Scripts that are only used as modules (not executed directly) have had
their shebang lines removed.
This fixes CI failures on GitHub Actions.

# LL-DASH Support
These changes add support for LL-DASH streaming.
**NOTE:** LL-HLS support is still in progress, but it's coming. :)
## Testing
`./chunking_unittest --gtest_filter="ChunkingHandlerTest.LowLatencyDash"`
`./media_event_unittest --gtest_filter="MpdNotifyMuxerListenerTest.LowLatencyDash"`
`./mpd_unittest --gtest_filter="PeriodTest.LowLatencyDashMpdGetXml"`
`./mpd_unittest --gtest_filter="SimpleMpdNotifierTest.NotifyAvailabilityTimeOffset"`
`./mpd_unittest --gtest_filter="SimpleMpdNotifierTest.NotifySegmentDuration"`
`./mpd_unittest --gtest_filter="LowLatencySegmentTest.LowLatencySegmentTemplate"`
Note, packager_test must be run from the main project directory
`./out/Release/packager_test --gtest_filter="PackagerTest.LowLatencyDashEnabledAndUtcTimingNotSet"`
`./out/Release/packager_test --gtest_filter="PackagerTest.LowLatencyDashEnabledAndUtcTimingNotSet"`
The newest pylint release complained about several issues that the
older release did not. This resolves those issues:
- removes unneeded "u" prefix from strings
- adds "encoding" parameter for all open() calls
- because "encoding" is a python3-only parameter, use python3 in all
the scripts that we control
Unfortunately, python2 is required for any scripts that import modules
from the ancient Chromium build system we're using (referenced by
DEPS), as well as kokoro scripts.

This converts all time parameters to signed, finishing a cleanup that
was started in 2018 in b4256bf0. This changes the type of:
- timestamps
- PTS specifically
- timestamp offsets
- timescales
- durations
This excludes:
- MP4 box definitions
- DTS specifically
This is meant to address signed/unsigned conversion issues on arm64
that caused some test cases to fail.

Internal CI systems and the new GitHub CI system were out of sync,
with the external system not doing any linting. Further, the internal
system was using an internal-only linter for Python.
This creates a script for Python linting based on the open-source
pylint tool, checks in the Google Style Guide's pylintrc file, creates
a custom action for linting and adds it to the existing workflows,
fixes pre-existing linter errors in Python scripts, and updates pylint
overrides.

It turns out that workflows were the wrong way to abstract reusable
pieces of work. This turns common steps into custom actions (build
docs, build packager, test packager) which can be used as encapsulated
steps in multiple workflows.
This is a much more natural way to avoid duplication compared to the
previous approach of triggering one workflow from another. This also
has the benefit of all of the steps of a release being represented on
GitHub as a single workflow, making it easier to understand what is
happening and what event triggered those steps.

Legacy players, e.g. older versions of ExoPlayer, do not handle default webvtt text alignment correctly. Need to specify `align:center` explicitly cues without text alignment for backwards compatibility.
Fixes#925.
This also allows setting the language of different text streams from
the same input. Multiple streams can use the same input stream
using different cc_index values and can each use a different language.
This also will try to pull the language from the input if not
specified.

I.e. the flag --generate_sidx_in_media_segments,
--nogenerate_sidx_in_media_segments work for both single-segment
and multi-segment mode with this change.
Related to #862.

This changes the default MP4 output to use TTML and adds a way to
choose which one is used. This is done with 'format=ttml+mp4' or
'format=vtt+mp4'.
This also fixes the boxes output in WebVTT in MP4.
Change-Id: Ieaa7fc44fbf4dc020a5bb70cfa3578ec10e088ce
This only supports TTML output; meaning the user can convert WebVTT
into TTML, but not the other way around. This will be useful for
DVB-sub subtitles that would be better supported within TTML.
This only adds text-based output; a follow-up will add MP4 support.

We currently have a bug about non-deterministic output in the MPD
generator. This works around that bug by optionally doing everything
in a single thread. This allows us to run manifest comparisons without
making the major changes needed to add that feature.
Issue #177
Change-Id: I10e1084dac77841220161fbd2575cdcb5c13c00e
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.

Now the same pipeline for handling the audio/videos streams will handle
the segmented text streams too. This doesn't apply to the text output,
only to the MP4 variants. This also fixes a bug where we added the
X-TIMESTAMP-MAP tag even when there wasn't TS streams; this doesn't
otherwise change the behavior around that tag.

The test added in the previous CL was broken due to a rebase on another
change. This subtly changed some of the byte offsets that broke the
test. This wasn't caught since I didn't rebase and re-run the tests
before merging.
Change-Id: Id7e4c7688278eae37da1a14f1648263b4dda98cd
This changes it from an OriginHandler to a MediaParser and moves the
handling of it to the Demuxer. This will allow more generic handling
of text by giving it the same abstractions as video/audio handling.
Change-Id: Ibbde3c84d228ec8e83af1ed266ea97dbc9589c24
The KeySource now only handles fetching the keys and loading any PSSH
info from the license; it will not handle generating new PSSH info
based on the config.
This will allow the PSSH generation to access to the full
EncryptionConfig so we can add additional options to it.
Issue #756
Change-Id: Ia67387aa3d5ec0d723b7f5f21fc517f64c840393
If the user has the GPAC MP4 tools installed, this will use that to
provide a better, text-based diff of the MP4 files. This makes looking
at test failures much better than just "binary files differ".
