[Bug 19594] remove "BLOB" from url usage for createObjectURL()

You mean specifically createObjectURL called with a MediaStream parameter,
right?

> The platform guarantees that it can be used for

Why only once? Gecko doesn't have that limitation.

> The effect of video.src = CreateObjectURL(stream) should be exactly the same

It should be the same as far as the behavior of the media element goes, I
agree. But you have to be careful with the wording because using srcObject has
different implications for the lifetime of the stream than using
createObjectURL.
