Please use `https://developer.android.com/reference/android/media/MediaDrm`

A utility class that provides operations for parsing extended metadata embedded in
DRM constraint information. If a DRM scheme has specific constraints beyond the standard
constraints, the constraints will show up in the
`https://developer.android.com/reference/android/drm/DrmStore.ConstraintsColumns#EXTENDED_METADATA` key. You can use
`https://developer.android.com/reference/android/drm/DrmUtils.ExtendedMetadataParser` to iterate over those values.
