TeamNewPipe/NewPipe v0.27.6 on GitHub

This hotfix release fixes various YouTube issues:

IOS player response is not valid which prevented any video from loading #11980 TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1272
HTTP 403 errors while playing videos (usually at minute 1:09) #11803 TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1272
Missing video streams at 720p 24-30FPS #11486 TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1272
A few age restricted videos are now playable again #11382 TeamNewPipe/NewPipeExtractor#1272 _{(but only a few, since there is no known reliable method to extract them)}

Warning

YouTube requests now require to run and pass Google's web browsers integrity checks, which NewPipe performs through the system WebView. Therefore, if your device does not have a working WebView implementation, NewPipe will have to fallback to other video extraction methods which might incur in HTTP 403 errors when playing.
