Allow trailer playback in 4k where available

I think it would be great to have the capability to view trailers in 4k where that was possible. Many trailers have that resolution available and it makes a big difference to have that added sharpness. Where 4k was not possible, lower resolutions would play instead.

Thanks for suggesting this.  It is possible, but difficult, and there are some things that I should do to make it more apparent about what is possible.

The IMDB trailers are limited to 1080, because that is the maximum resolution for those files. 

The TMDB trailers can be whatever resolution you set up your youtube plugin (input stream adaptive) to display.  I currently have mine set to 4k and it looks great.  Getting that to work reliably is a major pain though.

I have done some work to try to make the YT side easier, as well as to provide options to download the vidoes, but that's a long process that I don't know if I'll be able to make work properly. 

I will post more about this in the future.
