Instead of having to specify a bitrate and how many packets to use,
the BitrateProber will now use the bitrate to calculate how many
bytes it will use to probe that bitrate instead.
For now, |kMinProbeDurationMs| is set to 15 ms which means that probing
at 1900 kbps will result in 1900/8*0.015 = 3.5 kB used. Since we can
expect packets to be smaller at the beginning of a stream (500 to 700
bytes) this will result in 7 to 5 packets sent for that bitrate, and
should work very similar to how the current initial probing works.
A minimum of 5 packets are always sent.

Previously ProbeController would overflow int when calculating
min_bitrate_to_probe_further_bps and when probing bitrate is
above 17 Mbps. The problem was introduced in
https://codereview.webrtc.org/2504023002. Fixed ProbeController to use
int64_t internally for bitrate calculations.

https://codereview.webrtc.org/2504023002 broke exponential probing.
After that change ProbeController stops exponential probes prematurely:
it goes to kProbingComplete state if SetEstimatedBitrate() is called
with bitrate lower than min_bitrate_to_probe_further_bps_, which always
happens with the first pair of probes. As result it wasn't sending
repeated probes as it should. This change fixes that issue by moving
probe expieration logic to ProbeContoller::Process(). This also ensures
that the controller goes to kProbingComplete state as soon as probing
timeout expired, without waiting for the next SetEstimatedBitrate()
call.

Now ProbeController can send periodic bandwidth probes when in
application-limited region. This will allow to maintain correct
bottleneck bandwidth estimate, even not all bandwidth is being used.
The feature is not enabled by default, but can be enabled with a flag.
Interval between probes is currently set to 5 seconds.

Previously ProbeController was starting probing as soon as SetBitrates()
is called. As result these probes would often timeout while connection
is being established. Now ProbeController receives notifications about
network route changes. This allows to start probing only when transport
is connected. This also makes it possible to restart probing whenever
transport route changes (will be done in a separate change).

Reason for revert:
It broke downstream test.

Previously probing bitrate was capped at 10Mbps, which is too low for some
application. Now ProbeContoller limits max probing rate to max allowed
bitrate, which can be specified by the application.
