Replace vpx with more specific vp8/vp9 tags

[GodTamIt]

Currently, vpx is being sent by clients to refer to the VP8/VP9 codecs ambiguously when indicating transcoding jobs. Separate them out so that it specifies the exact codec.

Additionally, the server does not properly support transcoding to VP9 via libvpx-vp9, as it does not disambiguate between the two codecs and instead, falls back on VP8.

Steps

• Migrate the server to accept vp8 and vp9 in addition to vpx
• Properly support VP9 transcoding for ffmpeg in the server
• Migrate clients to send vp8 and vp9 instead of vpx
• Deprecate vpx and perhaps remove backwards compatibility once clients are all migrated

Is this still an issue?

[GodTamIt]

I'll need to check on the last checkpoint. We could remove vpx compatibility now that all clients have been migrated.
