feat(config): default preload to metadata - #1076

Conversation
Align the player default with standard browser behavior and cut the initial network cost: `auto` lets the browser pull media data for a video the user may never play, while `metadata` fetches only what is needed to report duration and dimensions. Updated in both places the default is declared - defaults.js (runtime) and configSchema.json, which is copied into the published bundles as the documented option reference. Note this governs the native <video> element, so it applies to progressive sources; hls.js drives its own loading for adaptive streaming, and autoplay still fetches media data either way.
