Feature Request: show Youtube "artist" with Playerctl #50

There is no artist info for youtube videos when calling playerctl metadata. I can see artist info when I am using playerctl with Chromium-based browsers on youtube, but not in mpv.

It seems mpv only recently added more metadata to the youtube-dl lua script so this might be possible when a new version of mpv is released.

See mpv-player/mpv@cbb8f53
