bachinger 686c3fe7f5 Add media item command buttons for Media3 controllers
Note that unlike the legacy implementation, custom media items
commands can be used for any media items with Media3 API. This
includes `MediaItem` instances that are received from sources
different to `MediaLibraryService` methods.

Hence when connected against a Media3 session these custom commands
can be used with a `MediaController` as well as with a `MediaBrowser`.

Interoperability with `MediaBrowserServiceCompat` will
be added in a follow up CL.

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.
