The stuff in MediaDecoderStateMachine::SetStateMachineParameters accounts for a lot of remaining cross-thread access, and is ripe for mirroring.

There are a handful of methods where we can't yet assert this. This bug will
tackle several of them.

While we're at it, I figured it was time to experiment with lambdas. :-)

Shouldn't we assert |mPlayState == MediaDecoder::PLAY_STATE_LOADING| which is the initial state? However, we must be wary of the ordering issue where this lambdas must be run before self->mPlayState is updated from the canonical value. Can we also mirror mMinimizePreroll to free from the worries?

Sure.

I considered doing that, but mirroring seems like overkill given the current code. Moreover, I don't think it would actually help, because we don't have logic to handle preroll-minimization-after-play. The assert should tell us if it's ever a problem.
