Re: [mediacapture-record] Does recording of remote a/v streams always imply re-encoding? (#139)

If the track is sourced from something that is based on an encoded stream, such as a remote WebRTC track, and we want to allow the User Agent avoid re-encoding the stream, then we have to wait for the first encoded frame to arrive before we know what codec is used, and as such we cannot synchronously update the mimeType attribute. We know this before firing "onstart" though.
