Move optional.h to webrtc/api/

We use Optional in our public API, so its header should be in
webrtc/api/.

+// Simple std::optional-wannabe. It either contains a T or not.
+//
+// A moved-from Optional<T> may only be destroyed, and assigned to if T allows
+// being assigned to after having been moved from. Specifically, you may not
+// assume that it just doesn't contain a value anymore.
+//
+// Examples of good places to use Optional:
+//
+// - As a class or struct member, when the member doesn't always have a value:
+//     struct Prisoner {
+//       std::string name;
+//       Optional<int> cell_number;  // Empty if not currently incarcerated.
+//     };
+//
+// - As a return value for functions that may fail to return a value on all
+//   allowed inputs. For example, a function that searches an array might
+//   return an Optional<size_t> (the index where it found the element, or
+//   nothing if it didn't find it); and a function that parses numbers might
+//   return Optional<double> (the parsed number, or nothing if parsing failed).
+//
+// Examples of bad places to use Optional:
+//
+// - As a return value for functions that may fail because of disallowed
+//   inputs. For example, a string length function should not return
+//   Optional<size_t> so that it can return nothing in case the caller passed
+//   it a null pointer; the function should probably use RTC_[D]CHECK instead,
+//   and return plain size_t.
+//
+// - As a return value for functions that may fail to return a value on all
+//   allowed inputs, but need to tell the caller what went wrong. Returning
+//   Optional<double> when parsing a single number as in the example above
+//   might make sense, but any larger parse job is probably going to need to
+//   tell the caller what the problem was, not just that there was one.
+//
+// - As a non-mutable function argument. When you want to pass a value of a
+//   type T that can fail to be there, const T* is almost always both fastest

-// Simple std::optional-wannabe. It either contains a T or not.
-//
-// A moved-from Optional<T> may only be destroyed, and assigned to if T allows
-// being assigned to after having been moved from. Specifically, you may not
-// assume that it just doesn't contain a value anymore.
-//
-// Examples of good places to use Optional:
-//
-// - As a class or struct member, when the member doesn't always have a value:
-//     struct Prisoner {
-//       std::string name;
-//       Optional<int> cell_number;  // Empty if not currently incarcerated.
-//     };
-//
-// - As a return value for functions that may fail to return a value on all
-//   allowed inputs. For example, a function that searches an array might
-//   return an Optional<size_t> (the index where it found the element, or
-//   nothing if it didn't find it); and a function that parses numbers might
-//   return Optional<double> (the parsed number, or nothing if parsing failed).
-//
-// Examples of bad places to use Optional:
-//
-// - As a return value for functions that may fail because of disallowed
-//   inputs. For example, a string length function should not return
-//   Optional<size_t> so that it can return nothing in case the caller passed
-//   it a null pointer; the function should probably use RTC_[D]CHECK instead,
-//   and return plain size_t.
-//
-// - As a return value for functions that may fail to return a value on all
-//   allowed inputs, but need to tell the caller what went wrong. Returning
-//   Optional<double> when parsing a single number as in the example above
-//   might make sense, but any larger parse job is probably going to need to
-//   tell the caller what the problem was, not just that there was one.
-//
-// - As a non-mutable function argument. When you want to pass a value of a
-//   type T that can fail to be there, const T* is almost always both fastest
-//   and cleanest. (If you're *sure* that the the caller will always already
-//   have an Optional<T>, const Optional<T>& is slightly faster than const T*,
-//   but this is a micro-optimization. In general, stick to const T*.)
-//

-// std::optional (and we're allowed to use it).
