Fixes https://github.com/shaka-project/shaka-player/issues/8475
Introduce `NativeTextDisplayer` as a replacement of
`SimpleTextDisplayer`. But keep them both work.
Is MSE mode, `NativeTextDisplayer` creates `<track>` elements for text
streams. And listens to change events on both ends to keep them in sync.
In SRC mode, `NativeTextDisplayer` would do nothing, the player uses
original TextTracks instead.
Advantages of `NativeTextDisplayer`:
- Allow text track selection using the browser built-in UI
- Allow text track manipulation using native APIs
- Avoid transferring and processing cues in SRC mode

With reference to #8025, this is a partial proposal to see if this style
of extensible customisation could be favourable to the shaka-player
community:
Proposal for some accessibility options whereby an App builder can
customise subtitle/caption size, with the potential of an App offering
accessibility options for text size.
This style could be used for other text styling attributes in a similar
way, but this is just the first step.
