			<pre class="pr-body">Justin's ask in #uploads-and-embeds (block ~26,329,275): a speed setting on the Release player, toggleable styled subtitles, Release pages titled as themselves, cards when linked, and commentary from the uploader and releaser.

			Player (`videoPlayer.js`, every `.hls-video-player`, Release pages and embeds alike)
			- Speed row: .5× .75× 1× 1.25× 1.5× 2×, under every player and on every playback path (hls.js, native, plain file). Pitch is kept (the browser's `preservesPitch` default). Remembered across videos in localStorage, like the quality choice. Re-applied when a new source loads (Audio only, fallback). Shift+< and Shift+> step it while the player has focus. The browser's own speed menu moves the row too.
			- Captions: the player reads `Release:<CID>/captions` (`action=raw`). WebVTT as is; SRT is converted. It's added as a real `<track kind="subtitles">`, so it can be toggled with CC under the player or the browser's own CC menu. On by default; turning it off is remembered. Styled with `::cue` in `videoPlayer.css`, not burned into the picture.
			- Captions live on the wiki rather than in the pin: a CID can't change, and captions get corrected and translated after release.

			Release pages (`ReleaseContentHandler`, `Hooks`)
			- The YAML `title` is the page heading and the HTML `<title>` (`setDisplayTitle`; checked in the 1.43.6 source that `Article::adjustDisplayTitle` sets both). The CID stays in the details table.
			- Byline under the heading: uploader (linked to their user page), upload block, date.
			- Description is the opening words under the player, not a monospace table cell.
			- Commentary: a new optional YAML list, rendered as signed quotes with a role chip:
			```yaml
			commentary:
			- by: SkymanJenkins
			role: uploader
			text: \|
			Words, in plain text. Blank lines make paragraphs.
			```
			- Captions line: "No captions yet · add them (WebVTT or SRT)" or "Captions on · edit them". It's registered as a link/template, so it redraws when the captions page is created or edited.
			- Link cards: `og:title`, `og:description`, `og:image` (the release's `poster.jpg` when the YAML says delivery-kid made one), `og:type`, `og:url`, and `twitter:*`. The description falls back to the first commentary, then to "A video on PickiPedia, uploaded by X."
			- `Release:*/captions` gets the plain-text content model (`ContentHandlerDefaultModelFor`). The existing `/Metadata` subpages are untouched.
			- An upright phone video is capped at 80vh on its Release page.

			Tested on a throwaway MediaWiki 1.43.6 built from the `pickipedia-wiki:latest` image with this extension copied in, using the live YAML of [Cory Walkers Birthday Banjo Cake](https://pickipedia.xyz/wiki/Release:QmUQwnWJMcwMGkVSo45XLwiqWZg8esLnecSzFCwdASDvNg), plus test commentary and a two-cue WebVTT. In Chromium (playwright):
			- the heading and `<title>` show the release name, and all og/twitter tags are present;
			- the real AV1 stream played from the IPFS gateway, and both cues parsed, with one showing on screen at 1.6 s;
			- at .75×, `playbackRate` was 0.75 with pitch preserved, and it was remembered on a second page's embed;
			- CC toggled hidden/showing, and turning it off was remembered;
			- the API reports the captions page as model `text`;
			- SRT conversion was checked in node;
			- the only console error was a missing favicon.

			`php -l` is clean. No PHPUnit run: this repo has no harness for the extension.

			Not in this PR
			- The Releaser isn't recorded anywhere yet. The Release page is made by Blue Railroad Imports, and nothing writes who finalized it, so the releaser's commentary is typed into the YAML by hand. A "commentary" box on ReleaseDraft carried through finalize is the follow-up.
			- magenta's own embed gets speed in its own PR; captions there next.

			Deploy: redeploy PickiPedia (the usual wiki build)
			Worked on by: magent and Justin, in #uploads-and-embeds</pre>
