bachinger 17ee5277d5 Only use result.sendError where supported by legacy media library
`MediaLibraryServiceLegacyStub` handles various edge cases by calling
`result.sendError(null)` with the intention to send back an error to
the legacy browser [1].

`MediaBrowserServiceCompat` of the legacy media1 Compat library has an
inner base class `Result` that has a default implementation of
`onErrorSent` that throws an `UnsupportedOperationException` [2].
However, most anonymous inner classes for `Result` created in
`MediaBrowserServiceCompat` do not override `onErrorSent` [3].

Hence Media3 must not call `sendError` in these cases. Instead we call
`sendResult(null)` according to what the default implementation of
the callbacks in `MediaBrowserServiceCompat` do ([4] as an example).

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.
