[webrtc-stats] Tweak "inbound-rtp" creation time (#816)

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

== Tweak "inbound-rtp" creation time ==
The [spec says](https://w3c.github.io/webrtc-stats/#the-rtp-statistics-hierarchy) "The RTCInboundRtpStreamStats is created when the first RTP packet for this SSRC is received".
- This neglects the fact that with Insertable Streams, RTP packets are never received, yet frames are decoded anyway and "inbound-rtp" contains decode and playout related metrics. It's clearly a bug not to expose "inbound-rtp" if `framesDecoded > 0`.

Proposal: tweak spec to say "packets received or frames decoded"
