container/mts: Depacketise function

[Saxon Milton]

I propose that we add an Depacketise function to the mts package. I till take a a series of mts packets and unpack them into a slice of AccessUnit (or Frame) structs, which contain metadata like time and location etc as a map, and the h264 access unit. We could then derive a type from a []AccessUnit called H264/H265Video that provides a method to get the raw H265/H264 as a slice.

@Alan Noble how does this sound to you ?

@scruzin ping
(would this warrant a design doc ? It might make it clearer to see what I’m intending)

[Alan Noble]

Yes, just a short design note would be helpful. BTW, re nomenclature, pack/unpack usually denote converting a struct to/from a serial representation. So not sure unpack is the right verb in this case.

[Saxon Milton]

Got it. I will call it Depacketise until we have a better name.
