Changed SegmentIndex and SegmentIterator to iterate through regular and
Partial SegmentReferences.
SegmentIndex:
merge(): Find all the old segments after the first new segment's start
time, and replace the old ones with new segments.
SegmentIterator:
Use the currentPosition and currentPartialPosition pointers to iterate
through the two-layer arrays.
current(): Get the current SegmentReference, and get its current Partial
SegmentReference if it has a Partial Segment list. Move to the next
regular segment if we reached the end of the current segment's partial
list.
next():
If the regular segment has a partial list, go to the next Partial
Segment. If reached the end of the current partial list, move to the
next regular segment.
If the regular segment doesn't have a partial list, move to the next
regular segment.

For LL-HLS, use the value of 'PART-HOLD-BACK' in the Server Control tag
as the default presentation delay.
'PART-HOLD-BACK' is the server suggested min distance from the live
edge, and must be >= 3 * partial segment target duration.
It's always available when the playlist contains partial segments.

In low latency streaming mode, EXT-X-PART-INF tag provides the target
duration of Partial Segments. It's required if the playlist contains
Partial Segments.
1. Get a playlist update every Partial Segment target duration.
2. Set the distance from live edge as 3 * Partial Segment target
duration, if not configured.

If a segment has partial segment tags, create a SegmentReference for
each partial tag, and add the list of partial SegmentReferences to the
parent SegmentReference as an attribute.
If the parent segment contains the segment tag(EXTINF tag), use the
duration information from EXTINF tag to create the SegmentReference.
Otherwise, calculate the parent segment's duration based on the partial
segments' durations.

Low Latency HLS uses 'EXT-X-PART' tag for Partial Segments.
ManifestTextParser will parse the Partial Segment tags, and add them to
the regular segment after them.
If a list of Partial Segment tags is being published and doesn't have a
regular segment Uri following it yet, create a segment object to wrap
the Partial Segment tags list.

The timestamp parser in our HLS parser should not fail on null TS
packets. These are indicates by a packet ID of 8191 (0x1fff), and
according to the spec, should be skipped by any receiver.
We will not skip such packets and continue through the segment to find
a PES packet with a timestamp.

In many places in the tests, we used "Object" or "*" or just no type
at all for various fakes. These were all flagged by the new Closure
Compiler version we are adopting.
In some other places, we mixed up similar types or had the wrong
nullability on a type.
In still others, types were missing fields.
These issues were caught by a compiler upgrade.

Change-Id: I324e0b28f7e30a4102aa26ec2c9901fa9732211b
The usage of SegmentIndex in tests was correct, but the latest Closure
Compiler is more strict about nullability. We need to add assertions
and refactor to avoid nullable numbers where a non-nullable number is
required. We also need to add assertions for the nullability of
Stream.segmentIndex after createSegmentIndex() is called.
This was caught by a compiler upgrade.

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.

As part of Period-flattening, I'm trying to remove our dependence on
the "position" field of SegmentReference. With that eliminated, we
can more easily concatenate Arrays of SegmentReferences without
modifying them.
- Make SegmentIndex iterable
- Add specialized seek() and current() methods to SegmentIterator
- Remove position from SegmentReference
- Make positions in SegmentIndex API stable without field in
reference
- Remove brittle hard-coded positions in tests (except SegmentIndex
tests, where they would be hard to avoid in testing methods
separately)
- Use SegmentIterator in StreamingEngine to track the next segment
between switches

As part of Period-flattening, I'm trying to reduce our dependence on
the "position" field of SegmentReference. If it can be eliminated, we
can more easily concatenate Arrays of SegmentReferences without
modifying them.
SegmentIndex can now track the last reference you asked for and
iterate through the list of references. This means we don't need the
"position" field of SegmentReference, which means we don't need to
know positions in advance or globally. StreamingEngine will no longer
use position to request segments.
The old methods find(time):position and get(position):SegmentReference
have been replaced with seek(time), current(), and next(), all of
which return a SegmentReference and maintain an internal pointer to
the "current" reference. Care has been taken to maintain that pointer
during the evict() and fit() operations. Recent changes to merge()
made sure that the pointer does not need to change during that
operation.
All test updates are related to the SegmentIndex API change, not
changing expectations or behavior.

Raw, containerless streams can't be played yet (#2337), but our logic
for skipping or rejecting them was broken. This broken logic affected
the whole v2.5.x series of releases up to and including v2.5.8.
This fixes the logic and improves it in several ways:
- Skip streams that can't be played, instead of rejecting the whole
master playlist
- Handle raw AC3 and EC3, in addition to MP3 and AAC
- Handle and skip WebM+HLS in the same way
- Add the playlist and segment URLs to
HLS_COULD_NOT_PARSE_SEGMENT_START_TIME errors
This allows us to re-enable the Apple HLS+TS asset as video-only.

SegmentReference used to have presentationTimeOffset, which,
subtracted from the period start time, was then _added_ to the
timestamps in the segment by MediaSource.
Now, SegmentReference has a timestampOffset field, which is exactly
what MediaSource's timestampOffset field is set to on the SourceBuffer
before this segment is appended. For DASH, this is periodStart minus
presentationTimeOffset.
This also adds append window start & end times to the
SegmentReference. Now segments can be appended to SourceBuffers
without reference to the period.
Note that start & end times of the SegmentReference in each segment
index are still relative to the period. This will change in a
follow-up.

For VOD, the first segment of every Media Playlist in every Variant
Stream must start at the same media timestamp. Thus, we can get the
start time once and store the value, and all the streams can use the
value directly. For live, we assume for the same.
This change reduces calling getStartTime_() from 15 times to once for
Angel One, and also fixes the text segment timestamp issue.
Also removed associated methods that no longer needed.

Our previous approach:
For every variant tag, find the associated media tags(with the same
group id), create stream info for each media tag, and then create stream
info for variant tag based on that, and create variants.
This approach has duplicate calls for the media tags with the same group
id to create stream infos.
New approach:
1. Get codecs from variant tags
2. Create stream info from each media tag (with the codecs from variant
tags)
3. Create stream info for each variant tag, and then create variants.
This creates stream info for each media tag once, and avoids duplicate
calls to guess the codecs.

To prepare for flattening out the manifest structure to remove
periods, this change moves initSegmentReference and
presentationTimeOffset fields into the SegmentReference object. This
way, the segments on either side of a period transition or HLS
discontinuity can have different offsets or init segments, eventually
allowing us to create a single array of SegmentReferences for
multi-period content.

This replaces find/get callbacks in Stream with a SegmentIndex. With
the exception of DASH's SegmentTemplate+duration, all manifests were
already backed by SegmentIndex. Now, all manifests are backed by
SegmentIndex. This will simplify Period-flattening, in which all
tracks will be represented by a list of segments, some of which come
from different Periods.
The SegmentIndex in Stream will not be created until
createSegmentIndex is called. Prior to this change, the find/get
callbacks could be invoked without createSegmentIndex() in some cases
(excluding DASH's SegmentBase), which some lazy tests took advantage
of. Now that find/get are methods on SegmentIndex, createSegmentIndex
must be called in all cases. The tests have been updated accordingly.
Making SegmentIndex generation async in all cases exposed some issues
with the parser context being modified in-place between one
Representation and the next. So the parser now makes a shallow copy
of the context before it is bound into an async callback.
To facilitate updating the SegmentIndex for SegmentTemplate+duration
content, SegmentIndex now has a method to update its list on a timer.
Once per segment duration, the index will be updated to add and remove
SegmentReferences.
The initial expansion of SegmentTemplate+duration will be limited to a
relatively small number of segments, to avoid excessive CPU or memory
consumption. This defaults to 1000 segments, but is configurable.
