[webrtc-stats] targetBitrate should not be "measured over 1 second window" (#423)

henbos has just created a new issue for https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-stats:

== targetBitrate should not be "measured over 1 second window" ==
This is a spin-off issue from #416.
While rate measurements have to be measured over a specific time interval, a "target" is not a measurement, it is a goal, this could vary on a frame-by-frame basis and depending on your framerate you might have to overshoot or undershoot this to different degrees for a particular frame. There's also a difference between key frames and non-key frames and the nature of the frames being encoded.

This stat description should reflect the fact that this is an encoder setting and be agnostic towards when or how the implementation modifies the target.
