w3ctag/design-reviews#836. This allows the client to seamlessly switch between the codecs without having to trigger a renegotiation. This feature is behind the flag testing.enableCodecSelectionAPI in config.js
This is marked WIP since we need a JVB change for this feature to work as expected for all codecs. When the DD header extension headers are negotiated, Chrome includes the layer information for VP8 in the DD extension headers but the bridge currently reads this from the VP8 packet headers. Since renegotiation cycle is not triggered when this feature is enabled, client doesn't have a way of removing the DDs from being sent by Chrome when we switch to VP8. - this has been fixed in jitsi/jitsi-videobridge#2136
