There is bit rot in the unimplemented stats in RTCStatsReport.webidl and the WebrtcGlobals.h. The spec keeps moving, which promotes continuing rot. So if a field is not implemented (it is always undefined), a dictionary is never created, or an enum value is never used, it should be pruned. This will aid with review-ability, and will tie the expected output of getStats() to the WebIDL.
The stats dictionaries enjoy the luxury of never being used as parameters to any parts of the API, which makes this pruning easier.

This removes all the unimplemented RTCStats types from RTCStatsReport.webidl and deletes the related code

Spec review notes: the WebRTC-stats spec[0]
This removes a number of dictionaries we have never omitted and have drifted from the earlier drafts of the spec. It should be noted that these dictionary types are never consumed by the WebRTC API, they are merely informative stats reported by it. It is not expected that a consumer of the WebRTC API would ever create a dictionary of these types. As such, this should have zero compatibility impact.
It is expected that these dictionaries will be re-added as they are implemented.
