Philipp Hancke acfd279a14 av1: make packetization generate more evenly sized packets
Implements a two-pass approach to packetization which creates
packets of an even size similar to RtpPacketizer::SplitAboutEqually.
This improves the bandwidth estimation.

The algorithm does a first pass with the existing packetizer, then
iterates through the resulting packet sizes and sums up the bytes left unused in each packet.
It then calculates a new maximum packet length as
  configured_max_packet_len - ((unused_bytes - packets + 1) / packets)
adjusts for the overhead and re-runs the packetization algorithm.

For example, a list of OBUs with sizes
  {1206, 1476, 1431}
currently gets packetized greedily as payload sizes
  {1200, 1200, 1200, 523}
With this change, it gets packetized as
  {1032, 1032, 1032, 1028}

This change is guarded by the field trial
  WebRTC-Video-AV1EvenPayloadSizes
which is acting as a rollout flag.
