Re: [webrtc-pc] Timing of setRemoteDescription's identity validation is unclear (#2173)

@henbos Most events (`track`, `mute`, `unmute`, `addTrack` and `removeTrack`) fire *right before*ยน the success callback, which is fine. The exception is `negotiationneeded` which is designed to fire *after* for obvious reasons (super confusing to initiate a new round of negotiation before `SRD(answer)` has resolved).

https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc/pull/2251 ensures `negotiationneeded` fires *after* even when `peerIdentity` is used.

<sub>1. Substitute *"right before"* with *"before"* if identity validation takes a while, something https://github.com/w3c/webrtc-pc/pull/2251 also fixes.</sub>
