Description
FlexFec is a packet loss recovery technique through which redundant RTP packets are sent and from which missing RTP packets can potentially be reconstructed.
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8627
There are multiple variants of FlexFec and I'm adding an implementation of the "Flex" encoder as part of this PR.
The other variants are not included nor is the decoder included which I hope to add in subsequent PRs, this first one is meant to be the start of a series.
This PR also doesn't add the interceptor on top of the encoder.
I'm labeling it as DRAFT for now until I write some proper unit tests to get us some confidence that it works as expected.
