Feature description

Buttons on top row of Next and Similar Videos' tab

Right	Middle	Left
Add to Playlist, Repeat	Queue Time	Shuffle, Switch to Popup/ Main

There will be two types of videos.

1. Manually queued: This section will show all the videos enqueued by the user. Currently, Newpipe does remember the videos until the mini player is closed as a backstack. However, the user is forced to access the stack while using the back button. (Read Back button behaviour with no backstack #4569 to know more) I think, previously selected videos should be just kept on the top. They will only be cleared if the user closes the mini player or selects Clear Queue button or gesture of main or popup player respectively.

2. Related videos: It'll suggest videos according to following drop down menu.

An auto-queue drop-down menu with following options should be placed in the middle to differenciate two types of videos.

1. None: No related video should be shown.
2. Related: Related videos will be shown but also changed on the basis of current video
3. Constant: Related videos will remain constant as it was shown for first video.
4. This Channel: Other videos from the creator channel of current video should be shown.

If any user changes position of any related video, all videos upto that point will be regarded as manually enqueued even if those videos were under drop-down menu.

Why do you want this feature?

Accessing play queue and related videos in different places for different players is troublesome. It'll be easily accessible if they were shown in the same tab.

A PR should only be closed on its own demerits, or because it is replaced by another PR, not because of a proposed alternative that has no code backing it up.
