Reland "VP9 decoder: Sets thread count based on resolution, reinit on change."

This is a reland of d5925756980f6e82a55f57532c8d855e954459fb

Patchset 2 is a reland of
https://webrtc-review.googlesource.com/c/src/+/177012

Patchset 3 is a fix for a potential crash when InitDecode()is called from
VideoStreamDecoderImpl::GetDecoder(), where the decoder_settings
parameter is a but surprisingly set to nullptr.

Original change's description:
> VP9 decoder: Sets thread count based on resolution, reinit on change.
>
> Previously, number of decoder threads for VP9 were always set to 8 but
> with a cap at number of cores. This was done since we "can't know" the
> resolution that will be used.
>
> With this change, we now intialize the number of threads based on
> resolution given in InitDecode(). If a resolution change happens in
> flight, it requires a keyframe. We therefore parse the header from
> any key frame and if it has a new resolution, we re-initialize the
> decoder.
>
> The number of threads used is based on pixel count. We set one thread
> as target for 1280x720, and scale up lineraly from there. The 8-thread
> cap is gone, but still limit it core count.
>
> This means for instance: 1 <= 720p, 2 for 1080p, 4 for 1440p, 9 for 4K.

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
