Adding an option to disable audio PTS adjustment on sender reports

API consumers should use this option when the media processing pipeline needs stable - monotonically increasing PTS sequence - small adjustments coming from RTCP sender reports could cause gaps in the audio. Media processing pipeline could opt out of auto PTS adjustments and handle the gap by e.g modifying tempo to compensate instead
