Re: [remote-playback] Add "connecting" to the RemotePlaybackState enum

If "allowed to pause" means that the web developer can implement that 
behavior but could also continue to play back locally for a bit 
longer, then that SGTM.

I realize that an issue with the handover is that if you continue 
playing locally as the remote buffers while `connecting`, then it's 
not really possible to guarantee that the local `currentTime` will be 
close to the remote `currentTime` once `connected`. I assume that's 
why the pause-buffer-play flow is used.

I'm not sure if a better method is likely to be employed, but if it 
doesn't complicate things implementation-wise then perhaps it's a door
 that can be left open for experimentation. I'm not adamant about it 
though.
