Nit: this comment is confusing, does "hasProcessPrivilege(ProcessPrivilege::CanCommunicateWithWindowServer)" imply AVPlayer.videoRangeOverride isn't present?

No, it's the `#if !HAVE(AVPLAYER_VIDEORANGEOVERRIDE` above that does that. I can move the comment around.

This piece might not be needed, since I think hasProcessPrivilege will always return false in the GPU process for this privilege.
