Summary [chromium] Should add support for in-band VTT text tracks in WebM media elements

The TextTrack API supports out-of-band as well as in-band text tracks for media elements. Apple's media ending has a layout test for in-band CEA 608 caption support using LayoutTests/media/content/counting-captioned.mov. We should add support for Chromium for WebVTT in WebM, too.

make sure the support is not format specific, i.e., if WebM is to support in-band text tracks, then that support should not be limited to WebVTT

There is no specification for any other timed text format in WebM - only WebVTT: http://wiki.webmproject.org/webm-metadata/temporal-metadata/webvtt-in-webm
