[DRAFT] Demo: store the settings in the url hash

[Florent-Bouisset]

Storing the player settings in the url hash let us refresh the demo page while keeping all the settings previously set.
It's more efficient and comfortable when debugging to not have to reset them manually after each page refresh.

To Do:

• Add a switch/checkbox to disable/enable the storing in url OR let the RxPlayer logo be a tag with href with an empty hash allowing to reset.
• Reloading a preset content will display it as a custom content, we can eventually improve that

Add a switch/checkbox to disable/enable the storing in url OR let the RxPlayer logo be a tag with href with an empty hash allowing to reset.

I would advocate for both:

• the switch would stop the URL from updating but keep it where it was. This would be useful when debugging settings you know are problematic, then playing with them, while being able to reset to the problematic scenario by just refreshing the page
• the link would just reset to the default

I didn't look too much into it yet but have you verified that this code is not sensible to race conditions?

For example, if loadContent is called multiple consecutive times, are we sure that the last call will lead to playback in the end?

Will look more into it, but that's a question I was asking myself reading this

I tried to provoke a race condition but didn't succeed in doing so.
I still have added the code to prevent any race condition, let me know what you think of that because I'm not 100% sure that this is the correct way of doing so.
