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
