[Feature request] background pause and play

[theScrabi]

That the video is not pausing is a bug :/ (#8). Also I guess you want a "listen to music" only, and "watch video" only function. I will add a "Listen" action to the VideoInfo view, witch will only play an audiostream and make the GUI behave differently. Here is an interesting link about that topik:

An existing workaround that works is to install VLC, and then tell new pipe to use an external video player, then choose VLC as the player. Since VLC supports background playing, you can now switch apps while still listening to the video, and also pause/play the video using the VLC notification while in other apps.

All right with one of the last commits this issue is solved :)
