tonihei 1b007deca0 Untangle PlayerInfo/PlaybackInfo updates
The methods in ExoPlayerImpl and MediaControllerImplBase that determine
the new PlayerInfo/PlaybackInfo currently have a hard-to-reason-about
setup where the method generating the new info accesses other methods
that rely on the existing class field instead of working with the
passed in PlayerInfo/PlaybackInfo. This prevents reuse of the util
methods (e.g. for replaceMediaItems) because they access potentially
stale state.

This change untangles these methods a bit by making the util methods
either static or at least ensure that they don't rely on existing
class fields of PlayerInfo/PlaybackInfo. Overall, the change is a
complete no-op.

Session module

This module provides media session functionality through which media information and controls can be exposed to the Android platform, as well as to other processes and applications.

Getting the module

The easiest way to get the module is to add it as a gradle dependency:

implementation 'androidx.media3:media3-session:1.X.X'

where 1.X.X is the version, which must match the version of the other media modules being used.

Alternatively, you can clone this GitHub project and depend on the module locally. Instructions for doing this can be found in the top level README.
