Description

Opus follows the pattern of AVC and AAC in having at least two ways to packetize the encoded chunk data. Currently the registration defines how the AudioDecoderConfig.description to signals the packet type, but we should add something like OpusBitstreamFormat { "opus", "ogg" } (check me on the names) for the AudioEncoderConfig to signal a desired encoded output format.

Research direction

Start by comparing the AVC and AAC registration patterns and reading the existing AudioDecoderConfig.description handling alongside AudioEncoderConfig. Confirm the accepted Opus and Ogg naming and define the specification change so encoder output selection is unambiguous; done means the registration and related configuration behavior are updated consistently.
