create different WebKit::WebMediaPlayer based on URL

In Chromium, it's better to create a different WebKit::WebMediaPlayer based on URL, since media stream has different characteristics than regular media playback. Therefore, the URL is needed when frame client's createMediaPlayer() is called.

nit: WebFrameClient methods always take a WebFrame pointer as their first parameter.

This describes the intent but not the patch contents

This should be more along the lines of "Pass URL to WebFrameClient::createMediaPlayer()" with the additional information below describing why we want to do this (i.e., "Permits creation of different WebMediaPlayer implementations based on the URL.")

Whoops my other comments didn't get published!

Nits aside -- I think the approach is OK.

As pointed out in http://codereview.chromium.org/10537091/ an alternative would involve relying on the media engine registrar + supportsType() by registering multiple media engines (i.e., the existing one and another one for media stream URLs)

If we wanted to go that path I think we'd have to plumb the registrar mechanism through the Chromium WebKit API (i.e., ask Chromium to register multiple engines). In the end I think we'd end up with an even more indirect way of creating WebMediaPlayer implementations so I'm not sure it'd be worth it.

It seems like this function should take a KURL rather than a String.

So, m_url is a String?  Why not a KURL?

Changed to use KURL in createWebMediaPlayer() in new patch. Not sure why m_url is a String, instead of KURL.

Thanks.  A good followup patch would be to see if we can change m_url to be a KURL.
