Request: Hotkey to toggle deinterlacing (or auto enable based on content) #686

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I watch both films and old television. The old TV shows benefit from having deinterlacing enabled; modern films look slightly worse with deinterlacing enabled. As a result, I often need to toggle the setting, based on what I'm watching. Changing the setting requires too many steps:

  1. Stop playback.
  2. Click upper-left hamburger menu.
  3. Click Settings.
  4. Click Client Settings.
  5. Scroll down.
  6. Click "Deinterlace."
  7. Click "Close."
  8. Click back or home buton.
  9. Restart playback.

Describe the solution you'd like

Either a three-way off/on/auto setting, where the auto option enables deinterlacing for interlaced video, and disables it for progressive video; or a hotkey to toggle deinterlacing, like jellyfin-mpv-shim supports.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I have been using the MPV shim specifically for its "d" hotkey to do this, but I prefer the integrated experience JFMP offers.
