setMaxAllowedBitrateFor can take a long time/never apply if not done before startup

[LloydW93]

Steps to reproduce:

1. Start playback of the reference player
2. Allow the player to stabalise on the highest bitrate
3. MediaPlayer.setMaxAllowedBitrateFor('video', 100)
4. Observe that as there is never a suggested representation switch, that the change is never applied

In the v.1.5.2 branch, this also applies to setLimitBitrateByPortal.

this worked in version 1.4

as setMaxAllowedBitrateFor is NOT inclusive, try to set 110 instead of 100.

@LloydW93 Still valid?

I've been working with BOLA lately, and there's another ticket with my observations on that. I'll play with this one again and get back to you.

Thanks @LloydW93 no rush. I can also test it out. I wrote the setMaxAllowedBitrateFor stuff. Let me know when you can.

Sorry for taking so long to look at this! Can confirm it's fixed in 2.0.

No worries! thanks @LloydW93
