It works on all platforms except Android and iOS (FFmpeg limitation).
Implemented behind compile time flags, off by default.
The plan is to have it enabled in Chrome (see bug), but not in Chromium/webrtc by default.
Flags to turn it on:
- rtc_use_h264 = true
- ffmpeg_branding = "Chrome" (or other brand that includes H.264 decoder)
Tests using H264:
- video_loopback --codec=H264
- screenshare_loopback --codec=H264
- video_engine_tests (EndToEndTest.SendsAndReceivesH264)

We must remove dependency on Chromium, i.e. we can't use Chromium's base/logging.h. That means we need to define these macros in WebRTC also when doing Chromium builds. And this causes redefinition.
Alternative solutions:
* Check if we already have defined e.g. CHECK, and don't define them in that case. This makes us depend on include order in Chromium, which is not acceptable.
* Don't allow using the macros in WebRTC headers. Error prone since if someone adds it there by mistake it may compile fine, but later break if a header in added or order is changed in Chromium. That will be confusing and hard to enforce.
* Ensure that headers that are included by an embedder don't include our macros. This would require some heavy refactoring to be maintainable and enforcable.
* Changes in Chromium for this is obviously not an option.
