This helps playing some media even if there is a problem with the
primary decoder.
E.g. [this
video](https://mastodon.social/@krzyzanowskim/112208964123517040) fails
on my Fairphone 4 without this change.

Currently, ExoPlayer is initialized explicitly in `ViewMediaFragment`
with all its dependencies, including many that are not useful for
viewing Mastodon media attachments.
This pull request moves most ExoPlayer initialization and configuration
to a new Dagger module, and instead a `Provider<ExoPlayer>` factory is
injected in the Fragment so it can create new instances when needed.
The following ExoPlayer components will be configured:
- **Renderers**: all of them (audio, video, metadata, subtitles) except
for the `CameraMotionRenderer`.
- **Extractors**: FLAC, Wav, Mp4, Ogg, Matroska/WebM and MP3 containers,
to provide the same support as Firefox or Chrome browsers. Other
container formats that are either image formats (already covered by
Glide), not web-friendly or reserved for live streaming are skipped.
- **MediaSource**: only progressive download (through OkHttp) is
provided. Live streaming support using protocols like RTSP, MPEG/Dash or
HLS is skipped, because Mastodon servers don't use these protocols to
download attachments.
The Mastodon documentation mentions the [supported media formats for
attachments](https://docs.joinmastodon.org/user/posting/#media) and this
covers them and even more. The docs also mentions that the video and
audio files are transcoded to MP4 and MP3 upon upload but that was not
the case in the past (for example WebM was used) and it could change
again in the future.
Specifying these components manually allows reducing the APK size by
about 200 KB thanks to R8 shrinking.
There are also a few extra code changes:
- Remove the code specific to API < 24 since the min SDK of the app is
now 24.
- Add support for pausing a video when unplugging headphones.
- Specify the audio attributes according to content type to help the
Android audio mixer.
