christosts 036a28b292 MediaController: stop advancing content position when player is paused
MediaController.getContentPosition() estimates the content position
based on the last position info sent by the player and the elapsed
real-time since the position info was received. After calling
MediaController's play/pause/setPlayWhenReady, the position estimation
logic is still applying, therefore advancing the position until the
underlying player's actual position is received. This can make the
MediaController's content position to be out of sync with player's
actual content position.

With this change, MediaController stops making content position
estimations after any of play/pause/setPlayWhenReady is called and
until a new position info is received from the underlying player.

Tested manually with the the session demo app, pausing/resuming content
from the UI.

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.
