Fast-tracked release in response to YouTube changes.

Added

  • Interim fix for YouTube changes where the GVS now expects video-bound proof-of-origin tokens instead of session-bound ones — such tokens are retrieved at runtime from an external provider. (#15)
    • Use --unstable-bgutil-pot-provider-url with the URL to a bgutil-ytdlp-pot-provider server instance.
    • This is not part of the stable API and may be removed or altered at any point.
    • Big thanks to the yt-dlp developers for identifying the breakage, and of course to the developers of POT provider server (and to those performing the underlying reverse engineering efforts) for providing a way to interact with those same mechanisms in a language-agnostic fashion.
