Basic support for Events

[nicolaslevy]

The goal is to implement the most common events for a video player to improve its interactivity and facilitate integration with applications. The implemented events should adhere to industry standards and cover the most frequent use cases. With this we will be able to interact with the player, and even build plugins based on the events the Player triggers :D

moqplayer.addEventListener('play', () => {
    console.log('Video started playing');
});

We can use HTMLMediaElement Events documentation as a reference: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTMLMediaElement#events

Basic Playback Events:

• waiting: Fired when playback has stopped because of a temporary lack of data.
• loadeddata: Fired when the first frame of the media has finished loading.
• play: Triggered when the video starts playing.
• pause: Triggered when the video playback is paused.
• ended: Triggered when the video reaches the end.
• (nonstandard) adaptation: Triggered when the player changes the rendered video or audio track. (see ShakaPlayer -> AdapationEvent )
• (nonstandard) catalogupdated: Triggered when the catalog is updated. (see ShakaPlayer -> ManifestUpdatedEvent)

User Interaction Events:

• volumechange: Triggered when the user adjusts the volume.
• fullscreenchange: Triggered when the user enters or exits fullscreen mode.

Player State Events:

• loadedmetadata: Triggered when the video metadata (duration, dimensions, etc.) has been loaded.
• timeupdate: Triggered periodically as the video plays, providing the current playback time.
• error: Triggered when an error occurs during video playback.

If we wanted to get really fancy we could look at adding events for things like SCTE-35 markers, as well.
