Avoid blocking calls during simulcast transceiver creation

Previously, initializing simulcast transceivers required synchronous
calls to the worker thread to update encoding parameters after the
sender was created. This resulted in unnecessary BlockingCalls during
the SDP negotiation process.

This change refactors the creation pipeline for RtpTransceivers and
VideoRtpSenders to accept initial simulcast state—including layer status
and rejection flags—at construction. By determining the correct initial
encodings via CalculateInitialEncodings during initialization, the
sender starts in the correct state.

Consequently, the negotiation logic in sdp_offer_answer.cc no longer
needs to perform follow-up worker thread calls for newly created
transceivers. This improves performance by reducing thread
synchronization overhead during peer connection setup.

WebRTC is a free, open software project that provides browsers and mobile applications with Real-Time Communications (RTC) capabilities via simple APIs. The WebRTC components have been optimized to best serve this purpose.

Our mission: To enable rich, high-quality RTC applications to be developed for the browser, mobile platforms, and IoT devices, and allow them all to communicate via a common set of protocols.

The WebRTC initiative is a project supported by Google, Mozilla and Opera, amongst others.

Development
