bachinger 617f9898c3 Add isPlaybackOngoing and stopMediaSessionService
This API additions help an app to implement the lifecycle of a MediaSessionService
properly and in consistency with the `MediaSessionService` being in the foreground
or not.

Not properly implementing `onTaskRemoved` is the main reason for crashes and
confusion. This change provides `MediaSessionService` with a default
implementation that avoids crashes of the service. This default implementation
uses the new API provided with this change just as an app can do.

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.
