Extracting length from Commons videos

This query is marked as a draft This query has been published by Isaac (WMF).

There are two types of img_metadata data formats: JSONs and PHP-serialized strings. This approach handles both.
The metadata keys/values depend on the media type (ogg, mpeg, or webm). This approach handles all three.
