Re: [webrtc-pc] Limiting number of RTCRtpTransceivers

@stefhak yeah, my first question is fairly generic/obvious. I too assume there is a limit. I'm actually interested in the follow-on questions.

Although JSEP specifies that we can reuse a stopped RTCRtpTransceiver's m= section, there isn't a similar behavior at the WebRTC layer for "freeing" stopped RTCRtpTransceivers. AFAICT, if I have some long-lived application calling `addTransceiver`/`stop` or `addTrack`/`removeTrack` I will just keep accumulating RTCRtpTransceivers at the WebRTC layer, even if JSEP is keeping my m= sections tidy. This feels especially strange to me if the application follows each call to `addTrack` with `removeTrack`, since—reading the APIs alone—you might not suspect they leak a resource (the RTCRtpTransceiver).

Can this or should this be changed? E.g., by removing stopped RTCRtpTransceivers from the RTCPeerConnection's set of transceivers? By reusing RTCRtpSenders in more scenarios?
