This PR is to add HLS playback support built into video.js for 7.0 via videojs-http-streaming (shorthand VHS). VHS is the next major version of videojs-contrib-hls that removes HLS Flash playback and includes some experimental DASH support (hence the rename). The purpose is to improve the out-of-the-box experience for video.js and allow cross browser HLS compatibility.
The proposed changes are to have the standard video.js browser and module scripts contain VHS and provide an alternate video.js browser script that does not contain VHS.
A video.js/core export is provided for importing without VHS.

I've got a way to run tests across every browser and device out there except for IE8, and IE8 should work except I'm running into a Browserstack bug that I've let them know about.
It uses a project called bunyip, which internallt uses Yeti (YUI), Pagekite, and Browserstack.
Next steps include:
- Making it all automatic. Right now you have to wait for browsers to connect and then manually hit enter when they have.
- Make it a grunt task
- Document it all so others can use it
I think this is close enough for me to close the milestone 4.0 issue.
