bachinger ffd7bb5639 Resolve and dispatch media button events within Media3
Before this change, media button events are routed from `onStartCommand`
of the `MediaSessionService` to  the `MediaSessionCompat`, resolved by
the legacy library to a session command called on
`MediaSessionCompat.Callback` from where the command is delegated back
to the Media3 session.

With this change the keycode is resolved directly to a Media3 command
that is sent to the session through the media notification controller
of the session.

After this change, a playback or custom command sent to the session
from a notification, either as a pending intent (before API 33) or as
a legacy session command, look the same and the caller is the
media notification controller on all API levels.

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.
