[Feature Request]: Add "Volume/Normalized" stat from YT Stats for nerds #5653

Description

Describe the feature you'd like to request

Add the "Volume / Normalized" field to the advanced video statistics panel (bug button) as in YouTube's "Stats for nerds" implementation.

On YouTube, it shows as: Volume / Normalized: 100%/72% (first % is player volume, second is normalized volume after loudness adjustment).

This helps users see how much YouTube has normalized the video's audio (e.g., due to exceeding -14 LUFS reference).

Describe the solution you'd like

Fetch/parse the exact "Volume / Normalized: X%/Y%" value from YouTube's Stats for nerds data and display it in the client's advanced stats section, matching YouTube's format and behavior.

No changes to the value calculation — just mirror what YouTube exposes (player volume % / normalized volume %)

Describe alternatives you've considered

No existing features in the client provide this specific YouTube stat.

Additional information

Example from YouTube (right-click video → Stats for nerds):

  • Volume/Normalized: 100%/62% (player at 100%, normalized down by ~4dB)
  • Content loudness relates to YouTube's -14 LUFS target

Relevant for audio enthusiasts monitoring loudness normalization.
