Fix L1Tx target bitrate bug when the standard API is used.

There are now multiple ways to configure VP9 L1Tx:
- Legacy API: configure legacy SVC and disable encodings, this gets
  interpreted as disabling spatial layers (non-standard API hack).
- Standard API: configure scalability_mode. This can be done either
  with a single encoding or multiple encodings. As long as only one
  encoding is active we get a single L1Tx ssrc, same as legacy API.

Due to a bug, the ApplySpatialLayerBitrateLimits() logic which tweaks
bitrates was only applied in the legacy API code path, not the standard
API code path, despite both code paths configuring L1Tx.

The issue is that IsSimulcastOrMultipleSpatialLayers() was checking if
`number_of_streams == 1`. This is true in legacy code path but not
standard code path. The fix is to look at
`numberOfSimulcastStreams == 1` instead, which is set to the correct
value regardless of code path used.

This CL adds comments documenting the difference between
`number_of_streams` and `numberOfSimulcastStreams` to reduce the risk
of more mistakes like this in the future.

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
