Review comment (suggestion):
Get the ld+json `VideoObject` for the headline video:
```suggestion
        json_ld = traverse_obj([
            variadic(x) for x in self._yield_json_ld(webpage, display_id, fatal=False)],
            (..., ((..., 'video'), None), lambda _, v: v['@type'] == 'VideoObject'))
        json_ld.sort(key=lambda v: v.get('mainEntityOfPage', ''))
        json_ld = traverse_obj(json_ld, -1) or {}
        if json_ld:
            json_ld = self._json_ld(json_ld, display_id, fatal=False)
