Instead of using a device profile like for ExoPlayer, we always build the direct stream URL, and at the same time tweak the media source request so that it never suggests transcoding. We do that by supplying an effectively unlimited maximum bit rate, which was previously hard-coded to 120 Mbps through the device profile.

Fixes #970.
