Tommi a50a81a150 [DataChannelInterface] Introduce DataChannelInterface::SendAsync()
One problem with the existing Send() method is that it has a return
value that is problematic for a fully async implementation.

A second problem with Send() is that the return value is bool and not
RTCError (webrtc:13289), which is why OnSendComplete() uses RTCError.

Also, start deprecating `bool Send()` in favor of `void SendAsync()` and
adding `network_safety_` flag for posting async operations to the
network thread. This flag also takes over from the
`connected_to_transport_` which can now be removed.

How to write code in the api/ directory

Mostly, just follow the regular style guide, but:

  • Note that api/ code is not exempt from the “.h and .cc files come in pairs” rule, so if you declare something in api/path/to/foo.h, it should be defined in api/path/to/foo.cc.
  • Headers in api/ should, if possible, not #include headers outside api/. Its not always possible to avoid this, but be aware that it adds to a small mountain of technical debt that were trying to shrink.
  • .cc files in api/, on the other hand, are free to #include headers outside api/.

That is, the preferred way for api/ code to access non-api/ code is to call it from a .cc file, so that users of our API headers wont transitively #include non-public headers.

For headers in api/ that need to refer to non-public types, forward declarations are often a lesser evil than including non-public header files. The usual rules still apply, though.

.cc files in api/ should preferably be kept reasonably small. If a substantial implementation is needed, consider putting it with our non-public code, and just call it from the api/ .cc file.
