📄 Description

This allows the previously hard-coded compatibility profiles for Live TV to be customizable on a per-tuner basis. Notably:

Selective enabling of the fMP4 transcoding container to support HEVC and HDR content if the tuner is compatible and will not cause playback issues like A/V out of sync.
Option to enable or disable HTTP shared streaming (one stream from Jellyfin to the tuner, with multiple clients from Jellyfin). This is useful when the tuner has a stream count limit, but it also caused a lot of playback issues as not all tuners/streams are happy with this.
User-customizable fallback streaming bitrate. This is particularly helpful when ffprobe cannot reliably determine the source stream bitrate, making the client request an excessively high transcoding bitrate that could overload the hardware encoder.

These changes also allow the plugins that implements ILiveTvService that can only supply a MedaSourceInfo to use the compatibility profiles. By specifying UseMostCompatibleTranscodingProfile and FallbackMaxStreamingBitrate.
