[Meta] Player Comparison Page

Summary

Since there is a strange mix between AVKit and VLCKit features, I thought it would be nice to document the differences between the two of these. I was motivated by this discussion and expanded on it by mirroring supported codecs directly from the device profile code that was written.

The goal for this PR is to have a reference to point to for questions about the differences between players.

Maybe add to the VLCKit audio section that audio over airplay has around 2 second delay while nativ is fine. See #420

This is a great addition, what about the TRUE HD, TRUE HD Atmos and EAC3 Atmos audio codecs?
It should also be noted that just because the player does support the codec, the hardware might not be able to pass it through, and it will be converted on device instead.

If for example there would be no possibility to direct play DV video with TRUE HD Atmos even though the Apple TV will do a lossless conversion to LPCM without the spatial metadata, there would be no point to download the app for me.

Thanks for working on this. Added a couple of comments, but I think it looks good otherwise.

Thank you for giving this a second look over! To be frank, I don't really encode HDR or anything too fancy so most of what I have is coming from your initial work on #519, and our finalized Device Profiles we have in code now. Additionally, there are some items in there from VLCKit / AVKit documentation but I'm not going to be the best expert for this.

I'm not at my desktop so I can't update the screenshot but my current version can be found here:

Let me know if there are any additional revisions!

Thanks a lot. I just noticed that DTS-HD MA is also missing from the list.

That's interesting as I only keep the highest quality possible in it's native format.

Made a couple more comments on HDR section, but otherwise looking good!

I had one last question on HDR, but then I feel ready to go with this. I appreciate your help looking this over!

Thank you for doing this and I'm glad that others were able to contribute!

I Copilot just condensed the tables and I mostly made grammatical changes, as well as moving into Documentation since I feel like we may have more in the future.
