When managing Etherpad's pads, Meteor makes API calls to initiate the closed captions
and shared notes modules. The pad id was being mapped to a shorter id than the meeting
id because of a Etherpad lenght limitation.
Changed to something less guessable.
One of the main issues in 2.2.x problem reports currently in the wild in social media and in the bbb admin groups seems to be that people turn a couple of webcams on and the clients or the server already can't handle it any more. In most cases, enabling video-pagination for mobile devices and also cameraQualityThresholds already "solves" the problem and makes it possible for much more students to attend online-class as well as raise acceptance of using BBB instead of other commercial services.
Even after promoting these new settings for weeks, many BBB operators still don't know of them and are surprised and happy once they enable it.
This change contians rather high values so that admins see that these features exist, but typical use cases which might not want video-pagination enabled (typical 28people school class) are still not "annoyed".
* add param to force echo test when user joins audio after init
* fix UI stuck on connecting when userdata-bbb_auto_join_audio=false
* fix conditions for joinFullAudioImmediately and joinFullAudioEchoTest | remove old format
* remove extra param in getItem
* recover audioLocked | only set getEchoTest if doesnt exist
As explained in #11143, disabling audio filters is desired in some scenarios.
This basically adds an option for user to disable default constraints.
When user doesn't change this value in Settings > Application, the default
value for each audio constraints is retrieved from settings.yml.
When user changes this value in Settings > Application, audio
filters (AGC, Noise Supression and Echo Cancellation) are all set to
true/false, according to the value selected in the Settings GUI.
To start it simple, we decided to not to add a different setting in the GUI for
each audio contraint. This may be added in the future, though (perhaps in a
dedicated Audio Settings tab)
This is related to #4873
Changes to the current (v2.2) default configuration of the guest feature.
The ideal is to keep the simplified guest feature as default (`authenticatedGuests=false`)
but we also need to be in sync with Greenlight settings to make this happen.
Greenlight will have to re-add the `guest=true` param on user's join API call when ASK_MODERATOR
is set as guest's policy.

In some scenarios, there's no need for the browser to apply such audio filters. For example, when user's microphone already does audio filtering (echo cancellation, noise supression ...).
This commit doens't change the current behavior (filters still follow browser's default config): admins need to uncomment/set these values if disabling/enabling specific filters if desired.

Some browsers seem to (occasionally) not return the getUserMedia promise call and the
user gets stuck in this state unable to share her/his webcam.
Since enumerateDevices still works even on a gUM rejection this includes a racing
timeout that skips gUM. Configured at settings `gUMTimeout`.
Reproduced with Windows 10 Chrome 87.
