Re: [webrtc-stats] Not clear how to differentiate between received connectivity checks and consent requests

consentRequestsReceived.

I agree, unless someone brings up something I hadn't considered.

response?

No, not without a nonstandard attribute to indicate that. However, it 
would still be reasonable to say "responsesReceived" represents the 
number of unique transaction IDs received, and 
"retransmissionsReceived" represents the number of packets received 
with already-seen transaction IDs. You could infer some information 
about packet loss from that.

and consent requests/responses?

Personally, I don't see much usefulness, and I feel it makes things 
more confusing, so I'd be fine not differentiating. @aboba, @vr000m, 
care to weigh in?
