* feat(webcams): skip video preview if valid input devices stored
Additionally:
- refactor: re-use the existing VirtualBackground_* storage info instead
of creating a new one
- fix: store background choices per deviceId instead of globally
- fix: guarantee background restore attempts are *critical* when
video-preview is supposed to be skipped. We want the preview to be
shown if the previous background could not be restored to preserver
the user's privacy choice
- fix: cameras could not be shared if no previous device info was in
the user's session
- fix: uploaded background images were not correctly restored
- fix: do not spin up virtual bg workers for brightness if it has not
been altered by the user
- refactor: remove old video-provider background restore routine,
centralize it in video-preview
* fix(skip-video-preview): correct storage check and add playwright test and docs

- Fix deviceId being read from wrong storage (making it not detected as already sharing)
- Remove added by mistake profile filtered by metadata
- Fix background and brightness selector being show when sharing camera that is being presented
Prevents the same camera device from being shared twice(webcam and "camera
as content"). The camera device shared using the camera as content feature
is tracked locally and then taken into account in the video-preview modal.
Enables the presenter to share a camera in the presentation area.
The shared camera automatically uses a pre-defined, fixed and hidden camera.
Profile defined in the settings.yml file.
It is currently using the screenshare's backend.
BBBVideoStream 'inactive' event currently does not send the
MediaStream id as the payload for handlers. This can cause theoretical
race conditions due to media stream mismatches in places where
'inactive' handling is done globally (eg video-preview).
This adds the MediaStream id to BBBVideoStream's 'inactive' event
and uses it in video-preview to avoid such race conditions.
The 'inactive' event is fired whenever the stream gets inactive (ie it
cannot be used anymore), and there are scenarios where that is
unexpected behavior and must be handled accordingly.
The main example of that is when gUM permissions are revoked by the user
via the browser's permission management panel.
Since MediaStream/Track inactive events aren't being handled in such
scenarios, what actually happens is that the camera just freezes without
further indication why.
This commit handles those scenarios in both video-preview and
video-provider by:
- 1) correctly stopping the camera (provider)
- 2) surfacing a toast (provider) or error indication (preview)
New features:
- A simplified echo test mode that only does a local loopback (instead of
going to FS and back)
- A volume meter for microphone streams to the AudioSettings view
Those two features are experimental and disabled by default; see
public.app.media.simplifiedEchoTest and public.app.media.showVolumeMeter configs
Collateral changes:
- fix: localize fallback device strings in AudioSettings/DeviceSelector
- Refactor on some media stream utils to be re-usable across components
- Refactor in AudioSettings to keep gUM #uses stable.
* TODO: need to pass streams through AudioManager to avoid the surplus gUM.
- fix(audio): drop ScriptProcessorNode usage (deprecated)
* Used in volume meter for tracking - use hark instead
Include `userCameraCap` API param on create and enforce both server and
client to control the number of simultaneous webcams an user can share.
Default set to 3.
