We're slowly getting a usable playback module! This PR adds MediaSession support. A media session is what enables stuff like the media notification, google assistant integration, controlling media from other apps / tv remote and more. It's quite a big deal.
For some reason, the default Android TV launcher doesn't load the images from URL (mobile Android does) so we need to fetch the bitmaps and put them in the data as well. We should also proxy the image requests via our own ImageProvider at some point to allow authenticated image requests. But this should probably be initiated from the BaseItemDtoUserQueueEntry builder.
