Improve robustness of hls media player by retrying errors following the recommended approach in the HLS docs: https://github.com/video-dev/hls.js/blob/master/docs/API.md#fatal-error-recovery This change introduces two types of errors: - Fatal errors that make the video element disappear (the old way all errors are handled) - Retryable errors that show a banner on the top of the screen while a retry is invoked The error state is reset in a couple places based on HLS player making progress (e.g. loading a manifest or loading an actual fragment). The error messages are simplified a bit too while we are here since the existing error codes are jarring, and don't actually provide that much extra detail.
