[Meta] Video Player Documentation - Move AV1 from Video to Container Section (#1416) 

* [Meta] Video Player Documentation - Move AV1 from Video to Container Section

This should be under containers not video. Confusing since AV**i** vs AV**1**. Added a note for the Apple SOC that first added HWA AV1 decoding as this should correspond with AVKit's ability to use it.

Pre-AV1 Decoders, I tested, and AV1 works but is VERY choppy so defaulting this to disabled is still the right move!
