Playback Mode Field

[fabrizio-rar]

This PR adds a new field called playback_mode which accepts an assocarray

This field is handled in the playbackModeHandler , this method does the following:

• Checks if the property mode is set, if not, it warns the user and returns
• Checks if the property player_playback_mode_data is set, if not, it warns the user and returns
• Checks if the property player_playback_mode_data is parse-able JSON, if not, it warns the user and returns
• Sends the event playbackmodechange containing mode, player_playback_mode_data, m._cumulativePlayingTime and m._totalAdWatchTime

To check if a string is parse-able JSON, the ParseJson utility function was used, to check out how it works, here's the documentation

Just one change. Hopefully simple.

Thank you!

overall - does this even work? If so, how, what am I missing about how Roku works?

second, I'm okay with just telling Roku customers to set playbackMode = { mode: 'string', data: JSONstring } rather than having to make them use player_playback_mode_data

[jsanford8]

Is this what we want to specify as the field name, @daytime-em ? It feels a little bit verbose, and I'm not really against it, but if we have playbackMode.mode and playbackMode.data wouldn't that work for us?

[daytime-em]

LGTM.

Thanks for taking the changes!

I responded to the player_playabck_mode_data thing on Slack. I'm good with it, but if we change to data, it's still a ✅ from me
