Review comment (bug):
We can get rid of `entry_protocol` and inline the format URL
```suggestion
        formats = self._extract_m3u8_formats(
            meta['video_m3u8'], video_id, 'mp4', m3u8_id='hls', fatal=False)
```
I'm assuming `fatal=False` is so metadata/subs can still be extracted if the m3u8 extraction fails? Do we want to do `meta.get('video_m3u8')` then?
