RTP Media API

[keroserene]

This is not necessary for data-only use cases of PeerConnection.
However, this would be nice to have for a more complete go wrapper of WebRTC. If this is desired, first we need to:

• Decide whether to use the soon-outdated working draft, or the new editor's draft version of the spec.

If using the latest Editor's Draft version of the spec, will need to implement at least:

• OnTrack event handler on PeerConnection.

The older Working Draft version of the spec has a less fleshed out media API, but does require:

• OnAddStream
• OnRemoveStream

hi will this be going on?

Eventually ... but, as you can see, it's labelled low priority.

I am interested in implementing the media API (audio, to start with).

Regarding the points above: onAddStream and onRemoveStream have been removed from the spec, so I assume we don't want to implement them.

OnAddTrack appears first in webrtc/branch-heads/57. I tried updating build.sh to commit 52b6562a10b495cf771d8388ee51990d56074059 (and removed the bit about patching branch-heads/52) and I get the error
can't open file 'webrtc/build/gyp_webrtc': [Errno 2] No such file or directory
when building webrtc.

I don't have any experience building webrtc before. I would love some help!

Never mind the above error; apparently they changed from GYP to GN for build file generation. I'll RTFM next time 😜
