ibaker c50084e7ba Replace Util.toLowerInvariant() with Ascii.toLowerCase()
Even when fixed to the US locale (and thus avoiding surprising behaviour
in e.g. Turkish locale with "i" and "I") there are unexpected behaviours
when upper and lower casing non-ASCII characters.

For example it's sometimes not symmetric, e.g.:
"ẞ".toLowerCase() -> "ß"
"ß".toUpperCase() -> "SS"

In all the ExoPlayer usages we are either dealing with known-ASCII
strings (e.g. MIME types) or comparing against ASCII constant strings
anyway, so it seems easier to just use Guava's ASCII-only class in these
cases.

This change also includes some null-twiddling, because
Util.toLowerInvariant() is null tolerant, while Ascii.toLowerCase() is
not. Most of the usages were already non-null, and it was easy enough to
change the remaining ones to be so by simple reordering of statements.

I'll make an equivalent change for Util.toUpperInvariant() next.

ExoPlayer HLS library module

Provides support for HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) content.

Adding a dependency to this module is all that's required to enable playback of HLS MediaItems added to an ExoPlayer or SimpleExoPlayer in their default configurations. Internally, DefaultMediaSourceFactory will automatically detect the presence of the module and convert HLS MediaItems into HlsMediaSource instances for playback.

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

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