Play movies has an Allocator that attempts to allocate a single
huge byte[] up front to minimize the risk of GC pauses. This abstraction
will be required to keep that when updating them to the new Exo.
VP8 can be decoded by MediaCodec (since very early versions of android). Now that we want WebmExtractor to be general purpose, adding VP8 makes sense as it is a common use case.
This CL adds support for WebM files which have Cues present at the end of the file (i.e.) after Clusters. The file referenced in the bug can now be played back using the demo app. It adds a new flag to WebmExtractor which should be set to true only when being used through ExtractorSampleSource. All others (e.g. DASH) should not set it.

I've found myself doing this a couple of times during local
debugging. It's harmless to have it public, and seems pretty
useful for debugging inside of the mp4 package.
Using a file:// URL for loading an HLS stream (for testing) would fail due to
casting the connection to an HttpURLConnection in DefaultHttpDataSource.
This change makes UriDataSource an interface for objects that are DataSources
with URIs. That allows for reading manifests for HLS using just a UriDataSource
rather than an HttpDataSource (URLs in the playlist are relative to the data
source's URL so the getUri method is needed).
On retrying loading a chunk, the state of the extractor was reset due to a call
to seek(). Prevent this call by only calling init() if no bytes were loaded.
Also make the DefaultExtractorInput use the loading position not the original
stream position so that its getPosition() method returns offsets relative to
the start of the stream, which fixes a bug where the chunk index offsets would
be relative to the wrong position if there was a retry while loading the chunk.
Vorbis decoder in android MediaCodec [1] expects the last 4 bytes of the sample to be the number of samples in the current page. This definition holds good only for Ogg and is irrelevant for WebM. So we always set this to -1 (the decoder will ignore this value if we set it to -1). The android platform media extractor [2] does the same.
This works around an issue the audio track continues to play audio data written
after calling AudioTrack.pause(), which breaks rebuffering behavior (as video
can never catch up if audio continues to be consumed, in some circumstances).
Also don't increment the timestamp wrap count if the track is paused, to work
around an issue where the playback head position jumps back to zero after the
AudioTrack position jumps back to zero.
