ytdl_hook: add script opt for using manifest URLs
Disable by default.
This feature was added in 7eb342757, which allowed stream selection
in runtime. Problem with this atm is that FFmpeg will try to demux
every first packet of every track leading to noticeable delay opening
the URL.
This option can be changed to enabled by default or removed when
HLS/DASH demuxers are improved upstream.
