AudioStream: remove unused youtube-specific fields #1150
Conversation
These fields were added in TeamNewPipe#810 in preparation for a DASH support that never materialized … well it did materialize, but did not use any of these variables. Since they are youtube-specific, it does not make much sense to export them in the generic API, lest people start depending on them as if they belonged to all backends. Well, 4 variables are actually already depended on in places, they will have to be checked separately. But this is the low-hanging fruit.

Hi, I was the one who added these fields originally, they are used in Piped's backend for providing sidX boxes for streaming with DASH.
Here's how an audio representation is created by a client: https://github.com/TeamPiped/Piped/blob/8ee2a1c20737ce9db84186e00849b405d6c097af/src/utils/DashUtils.js#L99-L117

Then maybe a comment should be added that these were added for Piped? Similar confusion can take place whenever someone compares NP and NPE code in the future.
