Add receive-only transceivers to remove Apple compat mode 

* WebRTC functionality is now 100% working as intended for Safari and
  iPad browsers!
* The legacy WebRTC API had properties like offerToReceiveVideo
  available on createOffer(), to set up a receive-only channel, but the
  modern WebRTC API had removed these and Safari only supports the
  modern API.
* The modern solution for the same feature is to add a recvonly
  transceiver to the connection in place of offering a local video/audio
  stream to share.
