christosts 78fc27a1c6 Fix HLS endless retrying on load errors
This was originally reported on #9390. There was a bug that when HLS
loads failed, the player would endlessly retry and never fail with a
player error.

This change fixes a bug in HlsSampleStreamWrapper.onPlaylistError()
which would return true for a playlist whose load encountered an error
but could not be excluded, whereas the method should return false.

ExoPlayer HLS library module

Provides support for HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) content.

Adding a dependency to this module is all that's required to enable playback of HLS MediaItems added to an ExoPlayer or SimpleExoPlayer in their default configurations. Internally, DefaultMediaSourceFactory will automatically detect the presence of the module and convert HLS MediaItems into HlsMediaSource instances for playback.

Similarly, a DownloadManager in its default configuration will use DefaultDownloaderFactory, which will automatically detect the presence of the module and build HlsDownloader instances to download HLS content.

For advanced playback use cases, applications can build HlsMediaSource instances and pass them directly to the player. For advanced download use cases, HlsDownloader can be used directly.
