Before this PR, the comment/description content was not HTML escaped when 'parse_description()'
was called with a JSON object lacking the "commandRuns" entry.
Closes issue 4727
This PR:
* gets thumbnail and channel name from the initial request
* gets videos, shorts and streams via autogenerated channel playlists

Closes issue 3513
The /api/v1/videos endpoint does not proxy the formatStreams URLs when
'local=true' is passed, whereas the adaptiveFormats URLs are correctly proxied.
The Web UI does proxy when clicking "Download" with 'fmt=18' for example, so
this is probably an oversight. This PR aims to fix that.

This PR adds two new config option, to pass a PO token (config 'po_token') and
a visitor ID (config 'visitor_data') to Youtube. These two strings are required
to play videos using the WEB client.
Warning: These strings gives much more identifiable information to Google!
If the po_token setting is filled in, then the WEB client is used. If not, the
Android client is used. TvHtml5ScreenEmbed will still be used as a fallback.
Script for generating po_token and visitor_data:

Helps with issue 4734
This PR adds support for inv_sig_helper, which offloads the player fetching,
function extraction and signature parsing, which in turn allows to use the
web client to watch videos.
When the new config option "signature_server" is not set, the logic for the
external signature server is not enabled and invidious behaves like before.
This PR also updates the crystal overrides because the stdlib changed quite
a while ago (See issue 11049 at crystal-lang/crystal) and those were required
to properly use TCP/unix sockets.
Closes issue 4649
