Clean up WebMediaPlayer -> HTMLMediaElement error reporting

Project Member Reported by wolenetz@chromium.org, Mar 31 2016 
From  bug 472253 , this bug tracks follow-up work to further improve the spec and impl for HTMLMediaElement exposure of a meaningful error message to web apps:

1. Split NetworkState*Error from WebMediaPlayer::NetworkState and instead have a dedicated error callback. (Decoding errors don't necessarily impact the network fetch at all.)
2. Add a message attribute to MediaError, so that web apps can also learn about these errors from the wild.

A good thing to do when fixing this bug would be to make the actual reporting to devtools disable-able in contentshell DRT mode, and just use the message attribute to verify the precise error message only when such verification is desired.  This should help reduce fragility of the layout tests to media engine error message changes.

Status: WontFix (was: Untriaged)
The remaining work (item #1 in OP) is still pending. Seems unlikely to get fixed in near term and is low priority.
CLosing.
