In 3.0, the packet loss metric used to trigger connection status alerts was
changed to the one generated by the `startMonitoringNetwork` method used by the
connection status modal. Since packet loss thresholds were not adjusted (0.5,
0.1, 0.2), a single lost packet causes the status alert to be permanently
stuck on "critical". This is explained by how different those metrics
are:
- **Before (2.7):** A 5-probe wide calculation of inbound packet loss
fraction based on `packetsLost` and `packetsReceived` metrics.
- **Now (3.0):** An absolute counter of inbound lost packets.
This commit restores the previous packet loss metric used to trigger
connection status alerts, reverting to the original collection method via
`/utils/stats.js`. This resolves the issue, but further work is needed in
subsequent PRs:
- Unify the collection done in `/utils/stats.js` with the
`startMonitoringNetwork` method.
- Incorporate the remote-inbound `fractionsLost` metric to account for packet
loss on both legs of the network (in/out).
- Update the packet loss metric displayed in the connection status modal to
show a more meaningful value (e.g., packet loss percentage over a specific
probe interval). An absolute counter of lost packets isn't useful for end
users.
- Update the alert log to use the fraction or percentage above

Jitter evaluation, as an alert trigger, was changed in 3.0 to get the internal
average jitter used in the conn-status component data (which is total jitter
delay divided by jitterbuffer emit events). This was done accidentally and that
metric is _very_ different from the one used in 2.7 (point-in-time jitter from
remote-inbound-rtp/inbound-rtp, highest on the interval, gathered on
/utils/stats.js). The alert thresholds were preserved, which makes it overly
sensitive in regards to jitter (and thus causes it to be critical whenever the
user is in audio).
Remove jitter as a connection status alert trigger, which fixes the
false positive. The implementation on <= 2.7 is also not ideal - if
anything, it generates false negatives. That's why I'm removing jitter for
the time being since it's ill-suited (at least in the way it's used)
for what we want to achieve.
