This will allow react-player to play URLs like https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDEcUiPhzbjI217qs5KgMvbvx6-fgY_Al. I'm not sure on the policy here ― should it play only those links that are "supposed" to be played (those that are "shareable" and have v= parameter) vs should it play anything that was dropped on it if it can (even if the user copied "wrong" playlist URL)?

The only reason for the current regex pattern is to extract the video ID here when firing up a player. However, now we have playlist parsing, the id can be undefined and it will still work.

I'm not overly happy with how complex this has become, but your change is harmless enough and enables proper playlist support. I'll have a look at tidying things up later on.
