This might be useful to provide for those who want to implement Picture-in-Picture or something similar.

I'd really like to create an abstraction for picture-in-picture; I need to see if it's possible on all platforms. At first glance, I don't see any problems apart from the lack of time and funding :/

I’ve successfully implemented picture-in-picture in my test project for Android and iOS; however, I have no idea how this would be implemented on other platforms. It might not make much sense on desktop. On the web, this is already handled by the browser.

With the current implementation, library users can easily implement PiP on Android themselves (as I did). On iOS, a reference to AVPlayerLayer is required, so as a temporary solution I suggest allowing users to implement PiP on their own.

This PR refactors the iOS video player implementation to use a AVPlayerLayer instead of AVPlayerViewController, playback state is tracked using KVO and a couple of small UX fixes, such as smoothing out timeline slider jitter and cancelling initialization if the screen is left quickly
