Description of your pull request and other information
Add an extractor to support downloading from https://beacon.tv, a new media website launched by Critical Role yesterday.
This website places a JSON in an HTML tag with a specific ID and type. This tag is extracted, the JSON is parsed, and the m3u8 URL and metadata are retrieved from the JSON.
Authentication on the site is done through cookies. This means that downloading videos that require authentication currently depends on the --cookies-from-browser command line flag. Videos that are public can be downloaded without this flag.
