BlockDuplicateStreamName flag does not work for WebRTC provider

[bchah]

The BlockDuplicateStreamName server setting is useful with RTMP and SRT providers, but causes OME to crash on init if you try to set it for a WebRTC provider.

In Server.xml, set:
Server.VirtualHosts.VirtualHost.Applications.Application.Providers.WebRTC.BlockDuplicateStreamName = false

This feature would be handy for WebRTC because it is more likely to be used in a chat context where users are turning their sources on and off rapidly. But currently it just causes OME to crash:

Ok, I will apply this feature to the WebRTC Provider as well.

@getroot Checking in on this, it seems the issue is the same a few months later:

I haven't been able to develop this since I've been too busy dealing with OME's critical issues and other projects for survival.
We plan to develop this feature at a low priority because there are great alternatives to SignedPolicy and AdmissionWebhook.
