Andrew Osmond 816b0b6da1 Bug 1868470 - Add new OffscreenCanvas and WebCodecs talos tests. r=perftest-reviewers,sparky
This patch adds new variants of the glvideo/canvas2dvideo talos tests,
but this time focused on OffscreenCanvas and WebCodecs.

There are test variants for each:
- Execution thread (main thread or DOM worker)
- Canvas type (WebGL or 2D canvas)
- Codec type (H264, VP9 or AV1)

They are included as part of the existing webgl talos job.

Talos is a python performance testing framework that is usable on Windows,
Mac and Linux. Talos is our versatile performance testing framework we
use at Mozilla. It was created to serve as a test runner for the existing
performance tests that Mozilla was running back in 2007 as well as providing
an extensible framework for new tests as they were created.

So, why Talos? Talos is the bronze automaton of Greek myth. Talos protected
the island of Crete, throwing giant boulders at unwary seamen. He's
also purported to have heated himself glowing hot and then embraced his
enemies. Basically, he was awesome.
