**Problem**: Newly created sources (RTMP/SRT/RTC/RTSP) were being
immediately marked as "dead" and deleted by the cleanup timer before
publishers could connect, causing "new live source, dead=1" errors.
**Root Cause**: All source constructors initialized `stream_die_at_ =
0`, causing `stream_is_dead()` to return `true` immediately since
current time was always greater than `0 + 3 seconds`.
**Solution**: Changed all four source constructors to initialize
`stream_die_at_ = srs_time_now_cached()`, giving newly created sources a
proper 3-second grace period before cleanup.
This PR adds G.711 (PCMU/PCMA) audio codec support for WebRTC in SRS,
enabling relay-only streaming of G.711 audio between WebRTC clients via
WHIP/WHEP. G.711 is a widely-used, royalty-free audio codec with
excellent compatibility across VoIP systems, IP cameras, and legacy
telephony equipment.
Fixes#4075
Many IP cameras, VoIP systems, and IoT devices use G.711 (PCMU/PCMA) as
their default audio codec. Previously, SRS only supported Opus for
WebRTC audio, requiring transcoding or rejecting G.711 streams entirely.
This PR enables direct relay of G.711 audio streams in WebRTC, similar
to how VP9/AV1 video codecs are supported.
Enhanced WHIP/WHEP players with URL-based codec selection:
```
# Audio codec only
http://localhost:8080/players/whip.html?acodec=pcmuhttp://localhost:8080/players/whip.html?acodec=pcma
# Video + audio codecs
http://localhost:8080/players/whip.html?vcodec=vp9&acodec=pcmuhttp://localhost:8080/players/whep.html?vcodec=h264&acodec=pcma
# Backward compatible (codec = vcodec)
http://localhost:8080/players/whip.html?codec=vp9
```
Testing
```bash
# Build and run unit tests
cd trunk
make utest -j && ./objs/srs_utest
# Test with WHIP player
# 1. Start SRS server
./objs/srs -c conf/rtc.conf
# 2. Open WHIP publisher with PCMU audio
http://localhost:8080/players/whip.html?acodec=pcmu
# 3. Open WHEP player to receive stream
http://localhost:8080/players/whep.html
```
## Related Issues
- Fixes#4075 - WebRTC G.711A Audio Codec Support
- Related to #4548 - VP9 codec support (similar relay-only pattern)
1. It cannot retrieve codec information on `Firefox` by
`getSenders/getReceivers`
2. It can retrieve codec information on `Chrome` by `getReceivers`, but
incorrect, like this:

3. So, we retrieve codec information from `getStats`, and it works well.
4. The timer is used because sometimes the codec cannot be retrieved
when `iceGatheringState` is `complete`.
5. Testing has been completed on the browsers listed below.
- [x] Chrome
- [x] Edge
- [x] Safari
- [x] Firefox

## How to reproduce?
1. Refer this commit, which contains the web demo to capture screen as
video stream through RTC.
2. Copy the `trunk/research/players/whip.html` and
`trunk/research/players/js/srs.sdk.js` to replace the `develop` branch
source code.
3. `./configure && make`
4. `./objs/srs -c conf/rtc2rtmp.conf`
5. open `http://localhost:8080/players/whip.html?schema=http`
6. check `Screen` radio option.
7. click `publish`, then check the screen to share.
8. play the rtmp live stream: `rtmp://localhost/live/livestream`
9. check the video stuttering.
## Cause
When capture screen by the chrome web browser, which send RTP packet
with empty payload frequently, then all the cached RTP packets are
dropped before next key frame arrive in this case.
The OBS screen stream and camera stream do not have such problem.
## Add screen stream to WHIP demo

For coroutine, we should use `__sanitizer_start_switch_fiber` which
similar to`VALGRIND_STACK_REGISTER`, see
https://github.com/google/sanitizers/issues/189#issuecomment-1346243598
for details. If not fix this, asan will output warning:
```
==72269==WARNING: ASan is ignoring requested __asan_handle_no_return: stack type: default top: 0x00016f638000; bottom 0x000106bec000; size: 0x000068a4c000 (1755627520)
False positive error reports may follow
For details see https://github.com/google/sanitizers/issues/189
```
It will cause asan failed to get the stack, see
`research/st/asan-switch.cpp` for example:
```
==71611==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x000103600733 at pc 0x0001009d3d7c bp 0x000100b4bd40 sp 0x000100b4bd38
WRITE of size 1 at 0x000103600733 thread T0
#0 0x1009d3d78 in foo(void*) asan-switch.cpp:13
```
After fix this issue, it should provide the full stack when crashing:
```
==73437==ERROR: AddressSanitizer: heap-buffer-overflow on address 0x000103300733 at pc 0x000100693d7c bp 0x00016f76f550 sp 0x00016f76f548

#0 0x100693d78 in foo(void*) asan-switch.cpp:13
#1 0x100693df4 in main asan-switch.cpp:23
#2 0x195aa20dc (<unknown module>)
```
For primordial coroutine, if not set the stack by
`st_set_primordial_stack`, then the stack is NULL and asan can't get the
stack tracing. Note that it's optional and only make it fail to display
the stack information, no other errors.

HLS typically has a delay of around 30 seconds, roughly comprising three
segments, each lasting 10 seconds. We can reduce the delay to about 5
seconds by lowering the segment duration to 2 seconds and starting
playback from the last segment, achieving a stable delay.
Of course, this requires setting the OBS's GOP to 1 second, and the
profile to baseline, preset to fast, and tune to zerolatency.
Additionally, updating a few configurations in the hls.js player is
necessary, such as setting it to start playback from the last segment,
setting the maximum buffer, and initiating accelerated playback to
reduce latency.

### Description
When converting between AAC and Opus formats (aac2opus or opus2aac), the
`av_frame_get_buffer` API is frequently called.
### Objective
The goal is to optimize the code logic and reduce the frequent
allocation and deallocation of memory.
In the case of aac2opus, av_frame_get_buffer is still frequently called.
In the case of opus2aac, the goal is to avoid calling
av_frame_get_buffer and reduce memory allocations.
### Additional Note
Before calling the `av_audio_fifo_read` API, use
`av_frame_make_writable` to check if the frame is writable. If it is not
writable, create a new frame.

By default, caching is enabled during compilation, which means that data
is cached in Docker. This helps to avoid compiling third-party
dependency libraries. However, sometimes when updating third-party
libraries, it's necessary to disable caching to temporarily verify if
the pipeline can succeed. Therefore, a configure option should be added.
When this option is enabled, the compilation cache will not be used, and
all third-party libraries will be compiled from scratch.

When accessing the SRS Stack, you should log in and use a token for each
request, or utilize the HTTP API with a secret Bearer token included in
every request. The SRS Stack HTTP API proxies both /api/v1 and /rtc/v1
to the SRS HTTP API while ensuring secure authentication. Additionally,
there is a console in the SRS Stack that requires the same token to
request the SRS Stack HTTP API, which is then proxied to the SRS HTTP
API.
The SRS Stack runs SRS with the HTTP API listening at 127.0.0.1:1985 on
the local loopback interface, allowing only the SRS Stack to access it
without authentication. All other users must login and access the SRS
Stack through its interface, rather than directly accessing the SRS HTTP
API within the SRS Stack.
