The Nitter source now supports playing Piped Videos directly within the app. For this we are checking if the Nitter post contains a piped.video url and if this is the case we are using the newly added `ItemPipedVideo` widget to render the video player, to allow users to directly play the video within the app. To support Piped videos we had to create a new `ItemPipedVideo` widget, which is very similar to the `ItemYoutubeVideo` widget. This means on the web version of FeedDeck we show the Video via an iframe and on the other platforms via our `ItemVideoPlayer` widget. The main difference between Piped and YouTube widget is the different client we use to fetch the video urls. Besides the Piped API returns two different stream one for the video and one for the audio, so that we had to add an additional `audio` paramter to the `ItemVideoPlayer` widget, which allows us to specify an additional audio source for a video. NOTE: We had to add support for Piped, because Nitter automatically converts the YouTube urls to the corresponding Piped urls.
