Re: [webrtc-pc] Clarifying how the simulcast envelope is created. (#2081)

Simulcast and RIDs are seemingly two distinct concepts, however, with recent changes we made, they are converging to the same thing (other aspects of RIDs removed, making using RIDs without simulcast benign).
#2071 deals with explaining that the order of send_encodings is authoritative and should therefore be used to describe the layers in the simulcast attribute, etc.
#2081 describes how simulcast is set up, and focuses on what happens when the server acts as the caller and requests Simulcast from the client (callee).

i can understand how under the offer vs answer semantics this would appear as "the other half", but the details are on different granularity levels, because of how different this scenario is from the 'regular' offer vs answer setup.
