📄 Description

Fixed invalid playlist item info for collaborative playlists from #603 issue.
Instead of hardcoded indexes for flexColumns, now they are resolved using their navigationEndpoint with following logic:

watchEndpoint -> title
browseEndpoint with pageType == MUSIC_PAGE_TYPE_ALBUM -> album
browseEndpoint with pageType == MUSIC_PAGE_TYPE_ARTIST (Regular Artists) or pageType == MUSIC_PAGE_TYPE_UNKNOWN (Artists for uploaded songs)-> artists
browseEndpoint with pageType == MUSIC_PAGE_TYPE_USER_CHANNEL -> user channel

Additional checks:

sometimes song does not have navigable artist (example 4th track in https://music.youtube.com/playlist?list=OLAK5uy_mfa2N_1Ro0GZKmcrHLR_1VqSr30efpwTc). Then first unrecognized column is treated as artist.
for non-song videos the last user channel is treated as artist
- In regular playlists non-song videos have single user channel column for the channel that uploaded video,
- In collaborative playlists non-song videos have two user channel columns. First column for the channel that added video to the playlist. The song column for the channel that uploaded video.

Unavailable songs do not have navigationEndpoints so hardcoded indexes are still used. Collaborative user is not listed for unavailable song, so it should not be a problem.
