Changes
Add a check box in the client settings for ExoPlayer to enable direct play SSA/ASS subtitles without transcoding.

ExoPlayer only partially supports ass subtitles. While support for more features of ass is being worked on it currently only displays it as basic text. Because of that the Jellyfin Android app used to always transcode those subtitles when selected before starting playback. However some people may only have files with basic text in ass subtitles, not care about all the fancy styling or need to avoid transcoding because their server isn't that powerful. Therefore this PR adds the option to direct play ass subtitles.
