olly 961adb7e36 Cast: Add MediaItemConverter
For now this just moves some code from the demo app to the extension.
Eventually the goal would be to have CastPlayer playlist methods take
MediaItem, have CastPlayer convert them internally to MediaQueueItem
for sending to the Cast SDK, and also allow reverse conversion so we
can reconstruct MediaItems from the Cast SDK's queue.

ExoPlayer Cast extension

Description

The cast extension is a Player implementation that controls playback on a Cast receiver app.

Getting the extension

The easiest way to use the extension is to add it as a gradle dependency:

implementation 'com.google.android.exoplayer:extension-cast:2.X.X'

where 2.X.X is the version, which must match the version of the ExoPlayer library being used.

Alternatively, you can clone the ExoPlayer repository and depend on the module locally. Instructions for doing this can be found in ExoPlayer's top level README.

Using the extension

Create a CastPlayer and use it to integrate Cast into your app using ExoPlayer's common Player interface.
