Retrieve video title from source [#2948301]

Hi,

This is a feature to retrieve the video title from the source.

To use the video title as a Metadata Attribute, you get use this patch for the module video_embed_field :

This can also be an inspiration to get other values from the Oembed datas :

My two cents to your work.

IMHO, it's simple and more extensible if you use directly the dailymotion API
https://developer.dailymotion.com/api#fields-selection
https://api.dailymotion.com/video/x5cf67p?fields=id,title
Be careful to use HTTPS over HTTP protocol when it's possible
You must have a fallback on the parent function getName() if the API return errors for example (an invalid video ID...)

Thanks for the help.

Dailymotion API : Not really more simple, but as efficient. However it's not aligned with the others Providers. But since it cost nothing to add a method to get it, I add one in the new patch.
HTTPS over HTTP : Yes, you're right. Fixed in the new patch.
The check for a correct video ID is done in the /video_embed_media/src/Plugin/media/Source/VideoEmbedField.php
