[brightcove] Improve the 'experienceJSON' regex (#3081)

There's currently a problem: all the available formats are reported as having a filesize of 2.00GiB, but that's not true, so the download fails (although the video can be played without problems):

Yes I noticed that too. I did not report as I was unsure if it was some... idiosyncrasy of some sort... and I ended up watching it in-browser in the end.
