Add an experimental Lazy Load OEmbed field formatter for remote videos in Varbase Media

Problem/Motivation

Recently I've been working a lot with front-end performance-related topics. One of the most glaring issues is how large the Youtube/Vimeo JS libraries are. Unfortunately, there doesn't seem to be a lazy loading mechanism for the core OEmbed.

Proposed resolution

Proposed and provided by abu-zakham

  • Plugin implementation of the 'lazy load oembed' formatter for Varbase.
    @internal
       This is an internal part of the oEmbed system and should only be used by
       oEmbed-related code in Varbase.
    
  • Javascript behavior that facilitates lazy loading oembed libraries.
