Extracts public metadata for YouTube videos by URL or ID. Combines YouTube's
oEmbed endpoint with the watch page's embedded player JSON
(ytInitialPlayerResponse) and structured data to return the title, channel
name/ID/URL, view count, likes (when exposed), publish & upload dates, duration
(seconds + ISO 8601), category, keywords, full description, chapters, thumbnails
and live status — without needing a YouTube Data API key.
