opencast-studio Tracking issue: (detecting) screen capturing support on mobile devices

Detecting whether display capture is supported is hard. There is currently no proper solution. See these two links for more information:

To work around this problem, we currently check if the browser runs on a mobile device as no mobile device/browser supports display capture at the moment. However, this will probably change in the future, so we have to revisit this problem again. This issue is here so that we won't forget.

I removed this from the current sprint as there is nothing we can currently do about this.

Update: this has been classified as browser bugs by people who are involved in standardization. Bug reports for Firefox and Chrome were created.
