--- Background ---
The webrtc::VideoSendStream::StreamStats are converted into
VideoSenderInfo objects which turn into "outbound-rtp" stats objects in
getStats() (or "ssrc" objects in legacy getStats()).
StreamStats are created for each type of substream: RTP media streams,
RTX streams and FlexFEC streams - each with individual packet counters.
The RTX stream is responsible for retransmissions of a referenced media
stream and the FlexFEC stream is responsible for FEC of a referenced
media stream. RTX/FEC streams do not show up as separate objects in
getStats(). Only the media streams become "outbound-rtp" objects, but
their packet and byte counters have to include the RTX and FEC counters.
--- Overview of this CL ---
This CL adds MergeInfoAboutOutboundRtpSubstreams(). It takes
StreamStats of all kinds as input, and outputs media-only StreamStats
- incorporating the RTX and FEC counters into the relevant media
StreamStats.
The merged StreamStats objects is a smaller set of objects than the
non-merged counterparts, but when aggregating all packet counters
together we end up with exact same packet and count as before.
Because WebRtcVideoSendStream::GetVideoSenderInfo() currently aggregates
the StreamStats into a single VideoSenderInfo (single "outbound-rtp"),
this CL should not have any observable side-effects. Prior to this CL:
aggregate StreamStats. After this CL: merge StreamStats and then
aggregate them.
However, when simulcast stats are implemented (WIP CL:
https://webrtc-review.googlesource.com/c/src/+/168120) each RTP media
stream should turn into an individual "outbound-rtp" object. We will
then no longer aggregate all StreamStats into a single "info". This CL
unblocks simulcast stats by providing StreamStats objects that could be
turned into individual VideoSenderInfos.
--- The Changes ---
1. Methods added to RtpConfig to be able to easily tell the relationship
between RTP, RTX and FEC ssrcs.
2. StreamStats gets a StreamType (kMedia, kRtx or kFlexfec) that
replaces the booleans (is_rtx, is_flexfec).
3. "referenced_media_ssrc" is added to StreamStats, making it possible
to tell which kRtx/kFlexFec stream stats need to be merged with which
kMedia StreamStats.
4. MergeInfoAboutOutboundRtpSubstreams() added and used.
