Google Chrome adds support for H265 in WebRTC

[spencerchance]

I feel like we've waited for this forever, but Chrome 136 will officially support H265/HEVC in WebRTC [1]

At the time of writing this, the current stable version of Chrome is 135, but version 136 is available as a beta. [2]

I tested a video stream that was encoded using H265+ from an IP camera that was passed through MediaMTX, and was able to successfully view it using WebRTC. I am incredibly stoked and am looking forward to expanding my configuration once the Chrome release is stable. Just wanted to share.
