New description:
Reduce fingerprintability and solve Windows reproducible builds problem by
replacing the current Chome-based C++ WebRTC implementation with Firefox's
built-in WebRTC implementation.
Update: After discussions with dcf, it looks like fingerprintability is
not much of a concern and in any case would be no different with Firefox
vs Chrome. Also, since meek is moving to uTLS instead of Firefox this
isn't necessarily more convenient.
Leaving this ticket open just as another alternative for looking at
different WebRTC implementations (related: #28942)

Comment (by cohosh):
Firefox is likely not the answer here as the workflow and details are very
close to Chrome. Fingerprintability is not at the moment a problem, nor
would Firefox likely provide a solution better than the current Chrome
library.
