Comment (by nacin):

 The most basic thing to do here is to simply hide the attachment display
 settings for audio and video attachments.

 The slightly more complicated thing is to make it so they can choose
 between embedding and linking. "Attachment Page" and "Media File" make
 sense as a "Link To", while "Custom URL" and "None" do not. Moreover, it's
 not "Link to", it's actually ''what to insert''.

 It's really a whole other setting entirely, with these options:
  * Embed this audio/video
  * Link to this media file
  * Link to attachment page

 For 3.6, we obviously are doing embedding by default. But that's quite a
 change from people who have been used to URLs, and in some cases, they
 might prefer a URL. So we probably do need to do ''something'' here beyond
 simply removing the attachment display settings for audio/video.
