Description
Another possible solution for the bandwidth estimation problems when not using simulcast in Chrome >72.
This PR drops all other RR packets from subscribers and relies on the sender estimation implementation in licode to update REMB from subscribers.
Also, this PR updated RR packets generated in Licode so the packets lost are monotonically increasing. There are different ways to do this but, at this time, we chose to use the packet loss ratio when it's > 0.
If tests are positive, in the future, we will work on separating the logic that decides what RR packets to forward in a new handler.
