[[ Player ]] Update dictionary entries for player properties 
This patch updates the dictionary entries for the "enabedTracks",
"trackCount", "tracks", and "loadedTime" properties to show that the
support for these properties has changed on Windows due to the switch
to MediaFoundation.

In addition, references to QuickTime have been removed as these are
now obsolete.
