"DirectShow Filters" should be "Media Foundation Transforms" or similar #367

1. What URL does this issue most closely relate to?
http://www.webmproject.org/code/#webmdshow_directshow_filters_source

2. Please describe the issue in full.
The codecs themselves are clearly not directshow filters, but Media Foundation 
stuff. All in all, it's very confusing to have both names being used mixed, 
when there are loads of websites trying to explain and work around the 
differences (for codec packs, DXVA+subtitles etc...).

This is a minor change, although the git link also contains webmdshow, although 
the linked git page only mentions webmmf. The latest DirectShow tag was 9 
months ago.

That repository contains the source code for both the DirectShow filters and 
the Media Foundation components, and the claim that "the codecs themselves are 
clearly not directshow filters" is false.

You could make the argument that that link should be called "DirectShow filters 
and Media Foundation components" or some such.
