rohks 481ea4a274 Enhance continueLoading() API to allow passing more information
Modifies the `SequenceableLoader.continueLoading(long)` method in the `SequenceableLoader` interface to `SequenceableLoader.continueLoading(LoadingInfo)`.

`LoadingInfo` contains additional parameters, including `playbackSpeed` and `lastRebufferRealtimeMs` in addition to the existing `playbackPositionUs`. The additional parameters will allow us to pass these information to Common Media Client Data (CMCD) logging.

By using the `LoadingInfo` object, we ensure future flexibility to add more fields without causing any breaking changes to the API.

ExoPlayer SmoothStreaming module

Provides support for SmoothStreaming content in ExoPlayer.

Getting the module

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

implementation 'androidx.media3:media3-exoplayer-smoothstreaming: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.

Adding a dependency to this module is all that's required to enable playback of SmoothStreaming media items added to ExoPlayer in its default configuration. Internally, DefaultMediaSourceFactory will automatically detect the presence of the module and convert a SmoothStreaming MediaItem into a SsMediaSource for playback.

Similarly, a DownloadManager in its default configuration will use DefaultDownloaderFactory, which will automatically detect the presence of the module and build SsDownloader instances to download SmoothStreaming content.

For advanced playback use cases, applications can build SsMediaSource instances and pass them directly to the player. For advanced download use cases, SsDownloader can be used directly.
