The period-flattening algorithm is run even on single-period content
if the manifest is dynamic, because we don't know if another period
will be added later.
As a failsafe, we should create one output per input for single-period
content, and we can ensure that no streams are unused by marking an
input stream as the "best match" for an output if they share the same
ID. That way, even if all other characteristics for two inputs are
the same, the input-to-output mapping for single-period content will
always be sane.
That ID-based logic was missing for text streams. This change
corrects that.

This fixes all the license headers in the main library, which corrects
the appearance of the main license in the compiled output.
It seems that the `!` in the header forces the compiler to keep it in
the output. I believe older compiler releases did this purely based
on `@license`.

We have decided to bump the major version number instead of the minor
number, based primarily on the fact that this release breaks
compatibility with our previous manifest structure.

When we construct final streams in period flattening, we start them
off original streams and then combine streams from each period that
best matches the characteristics of the original stream.
The original stream also participates in the matching process, but
it was possible for it not to get selected as the best match if
there were other streams with similar characteristics.
This change adds logic to always prefer the original stream if
it's encountered.
Also, this change adds a bandwidth comparison for audio
streams to ensure the closest streams get matched bandwidth-wise.

We used to alias static utility methods by assigning the method itself
to a local variable. This is not allowed by the new Closure Compiler
release that we are adopting, and for good reason.
The old compiler did not understand the use of "this" in static
methods, but the new one does. And it turns out that when we start
using "this" in static methods (see #2532), aliasing the method itself
can break everything.
When you refer to "this" in a static method, it refers to the class.
This is really useful in utility classes that have private static
methods they use to perform common tasks. However, just as it ruins
the value of "this" to alias an instance method, the same is true of
an ES6 class's static method.
The fix is to always alias the class instead of the method. The new
compiler will simply not let us get away with the old way any more, so
regressions after this are unlikely.

This creates a new utility used by DashParser and old offline DB
formats to combine Streams across Periods. This allows multi-Period
DASH content to be played without period-specific structures in the
manifest format, StreamingEngine, or Player. This also makes the
Tracks stable across Periods.

This removes periods from the internal manifest structure and cleans
up code and tests accordingly. This leaves us unable to play
multi-period DASH & offline streams until the main period-flattening
algorithm is completed in shaka.util.Periods.
Three test cases have been disabled for the moment.
Multi-period playback will be restored in a smaller, more focused
follow-up commit, with disabled tests re-enabled.

This reflects changes in Google's policy on JavaScript license
headers, which should be smaller to avoid increasing the size of the
binary unnecessarily.
This also updates the company name from "Google, Inc" to "Google LLC".

We need to find the current period for a given time in two places:
streaming engine and period observer.
This change takes the method used by streaming engine and the method
used by period observer and merges them into a common method in
|shaka.util.Periods|.

Refactored |StreamUtils.getAllVariants| to get variants from a collection
of periods (rather than a manifest). This allows us to avoid needing to
assert that the manifest exists (when we know it will).
Looking long-term, as part of the refactor the method was moved to a
period-focused utility class. The goal of this is to make it easier to
see what methods may go away when we flatten periods.
