Youtube space enabler Extension

Update
- fix for the situation when progress bar is focused

On windows, using alt + tab to switch between windows would cause youtube video unresponsive to space (normally it would toggle play and pause). Also pressing tab alone would cause this issue. Though it's supposed for accessibility purpose. This extension enables the space for whatever state a youtube video is in.
