Use these to guard against future compat changes. This allows devs to
change defaults and make other potentially breaking changes more easily.
If you need everything to work exactly as-is, put this in your config
to make plugins easier to develop and use:
* Plugins are now loaded as namespace packages.
* Plugins can be loaded in any distribution of yt-dlp (binary, pip, source, etc.).
* Plugin packages can be installed and managed via pip, or dropped into any of the documented locations.
* Users do not need to edit any code files to install plugins.
* Backwards-compatible with previous plugin architecture.
As a side-effect, yt-dlp will now search in a few more locations for config files.

* `fragment_query`: passthrough any query in generic mpd/m3u8 manifest URLs to their fragments
* Add support for `extra_param_to_segment_url` to DASH downloader
Authored by: bashonly, pukkandan
* The fragments are generated as a `LazyList`. So only the required formats are expanded during download, but all fragment lists are printed/written in infojson.
* The m3u8 formats which cannot be downloaded from start are not extracted by default, but can be enabled with an extractor-arg. The extractor-arg `include_live_dash` is renamed to `include_incomplete_formats` to account for this new use-case.

Adds `--extractor-args youtube:lang=<supported lang code>` extractor arg to prefer translated fields (e.g. title and description) of that language, if available, for all YouTube extractors. See README or error message for list of supported language codes.
