Add jitsi recording (jibri support)
Sometimes, people do need to record some videos from Jitsi, and there is an opposition is "matrix_jitsi_jibri_recorder_password:". So I believe that it's OK to bring the recording function back.
Because the installation are in the dockers, and there are too much functions in the installation, it is very hard to install jibri in outside VPS, than point the recording function to that VPS. So, for the convenience, just put the jibri with the recording function in the same VPS (that's enough for the home environment).
We're not opposed to adding the Jibri component, so that we can have recording support in Jitsi. This has been discussed in the past as well. I suppose that most people don't need the Jibri recording component, so it should be optional -- to be enabled explicitly, only by those who need it.
Still, no one has done the work to add Jibri support yet. If you're using Jitsi and have some time on your hands, you could work on adding Jibri support. Our Jitsi implementation is heavily inspired from the docker-compose implementation we see here: https://github.com/jitsi/docker-jitsi-meet
Of course, anyone else has interest in this and is willing to do the work is welcome to do so. I'll be happy to help with the PR.
I have started work on this. I should have something ready in a month or so.
