Allow using media thumbnail

Problem/Motivation

By default, oEmbed lazyload will load the video thumbnail directly from Youtube's servers.

This is perfectly fine, but in some cases the developer might prefer to use Drupal's own media-managed thumbnail because of the following reasons:

- The need to control the aspect ratio of the thumbnail
- The need to control the size of the thumbnail: i've found that the images provided by //i.ytimg.com/ aren't big enough for some designs, while using Drupal's thumbnail you can get yoru desired crop and sizing.
- Performance reasons, i.e minimizing the load of third-party resources
- Simply because it works better: i've found that some youtube videos don't return a thumbnail using //i.ytimg.com/, while Drupal is keeping a perfect thumbnail on its files.

Proposed resolution

Allos, via field formatter interface, to use the Media thumbnail and to select an image style as an alternative to the default, external resource loading.

Hey Ignacio,

I invite you to check out the flexible-metadata-alter-architecture branch in the issue fork of https://www.drupal.org/project/oembed_lazyload/issues/3413985 ✨ Provide an extensible mechanism for thumbnail configuration and customization Needs work and see if it meets your needs. I've added support for more off-the-shelf rendering mechanisms while providing full backwards compatibility.

Let me know if this helps. I'm going to try to get #3413985 added to a 2.1.0 release in the coming weeks after tying up some loose ends.

Thanks
