Video popup iframe needs mute=1 added to vimeo and youtube to allow auto play #1111

Recently chrome made some changes where unmuted videos will not auto play. The iframe src for both youtube and vimeo needs to be updated to the following to allow auto play again.

//www.youtube.com/embed/%id%?autoplay=1&mute=1 //player.vimeo.com/video/%id%?autoplay=1&muted=1

It appears that ALL iframe youtube videos have autoplay=1&mute=1 now ... how would we use autoplay=0&mute=0 given this change? I'd rather have the user click play and have the audio at the ready, as opposed to video autoplay and the user not knowing if it's muted or quiet.

The solution mentioned by @apmeyer in this issue https://github.com/dimsemenov/Magnific-Popup/issues/1123 works.
