/**
* Video encoder interface.
*
* Typical usage:
* - Call Create() to create a new video encoder resource.
* - Call GetSupportedFormats() to determine which codecs and profiles are
* available.
* - Call Initialize() to initialize the encoder for a supported profile.
* - Call GetVideoFrame() to get a blank frame and fill it in, or get a video
* frame from another resource, e.g. <code>PPB_MediaStreamVideoTrack</code>.
* - Call Encode() to push the video frame to the encoder. If an external frame
* is pushed, wait for completion to recycle the frame.
* - Call GetBitstreamBuffer() continuously (waiting for each previous call to
* complete) to pull encoded pictures from the encoder.
* - Call RecycleBitstreamBuffer() after consuming the data in the bitstream
* buffer.
* - To destroy the encoder, the plugin should release all of its references to
* it. Any pending callbacks will abort before the encoder is destroyed.
*
* Available video codecs vary by platform.
* All: vp8 (software).
* ChromeOS, depending on your device: h264 (hardware), vp8 (hardware)
