This PR will...
When performing a switch, if no exact URI match to a RENDITION-REPORT is found, use the last RENDITION-REPORT URI that matches the target Playlist URI from start to Rendition URI length.
Why is this Pull Request needed?
Switches will be performed using RENDITION-REPORT Delivery Directives when Media Playlist URI has a query string, and the RENDITION-REPORT URI does not.
Are there any points in the code the reviewer needs to double check?
It could be worth considering simply using the current Playlist's last msn and part index when a matching RENDITION-REPORT cannot be found. A failed attempt would fall back to a request without Delivery Directives. However, the player should avoid making requests that could cause errors to get cached on edge servers.
