Show speaker's names in the recordings about bbb-playback HOT 3 OPEN

It's a good suggestion -- BigBlueButton already shows who is talking during the live session, and it could potentially do this during the playback.

This is an old PR but should still work

The issue is here: bigbluebutton/bigbluebutton#4025
The idea is to embed the names in the video at the level of ffmpeg. So you cannot hide the names at the playback. Ideally we should be able to switch showing the names.

Actually I was thinking about something else. An indicator just like what we see in a online session.
Because there are a lot of cases which users don't turn on camera, but speak.
(In classes and webinars, usually only the main presenter turns on the camera.)
If the users don't send anything in the public chat, you wouldn't be able to even know who's in the meeting. It's alright. But it should be specified who's speaking when you hear a voice.

I'm not a developer but I've seen it's saved into events.xml. So it shouldn't be much hard to implement.
