Reviewed by Elliott Williams.

We decided that 'developer' state should refer to features that are typically off,
but might be enabled by developers debugging a problem. A number of features that
are expected to be enabled at all times were improperly labeled with this state, causing
our Lockdown Mode logic to turn them off.

Instead, we should use 'stable' for features that developers may wish to turn off for
A/B testing reasons, but are not intended to be off for most use cases.

This patch corrects these problems, and exposes two WebRTC flags as developer options that
can be enabled for experimentation, but should not be used by default.
