*This is going to either require changes on the invidious side or we fetch the full info for a YouTube video and then we also try to download a chunk of the video stream. This is probably something that we shouldn't even consider implementing into the settings checks

Problem Description
In https://github.com/FreeTubeApp/FreeTube/pull/2714 we filtered out the invidious instances that don't support the API.
Usecase: User clicks on 'View all Invidious instance information' and goes to https://api.invidious.io/. User selects an instance that doesnt support the API.
I think we have to inform the user that they need to select an instance that supports the api before they go to https://api.invidious.io/
Proposed Solution
Make the user aware in the '?' toast or put the warning after 'View all Invidious instance information' which seems like a better idea to me.
Alternatives Considered
This is an addition to the proposed solution: If user still selected an instance from https://api.invidious.io/ that doesnt support the api, we should display a warning like this instance isnt supported or something.
