Arkadiusz Fal 7c28e86d96 Add UI smoke test for search and playback on basic-auth Invidious
Exercises the read path end-to-end against an Invidious instance fronted
by an HTTP Basic Auth reverse proxy: adds the instance via the new
basic-auth-aware add helper, navigates to Search, runs a query, taps the
first result, waits for the player to expand and start playback, then
closes the player. Confirms that ContentService's per-instance HTTPClient
(with the basic-auth Authorization header baked in via setDefaultHeaders)
is wired correctly through search, video metadata fetch, and stream
loading.

Skips cleanly when INVIDIOUS_BASIC_AUTH_USERNAME / _PASSWORD are not set.
