Replaces Android's existing in-built VideoView with AndroidX's Media3 ExoPlayer.
The new Exoplayer solves multiple issues present with VideoView, including the issue of being unable to often move out of the VideoPlayer in a single back swipe gesture (described in #261), and adds new controls to the video player.
