Chomecast support

Any admin using browser2 can push a button and have player2 running on
their TV

Issues:

[ ] There seems to be some bug where chromecast hardware video display
glitches off when combined with hyperapp - right now this is bad enough
to make casting practically unusable :(
[ ] CSS animations are super slow, the default theme has elements
sliding in at ~4fps
[ ] No indication when casting is active (Although that's not
super-relevant here since we cast-and-forget; commands like "play" are
sent via MQTT and don't care if we're casting or not)
[ ] Requires an internet connetcion
[ ] Uses the non-recommended chromecast API. The v2 API supports any
random webpage while the recommended v3 API is specifically for use in
casting videos and makes anything else a huge pain.
