Request video info webpage using "embedded" instead of "detailpage"

In the request for get_video_info, use el=embedded instead of el=detailpage, as
if the request was coming from an embedded video player instead of the video
webpage. This created problems for some videos, with YouTube replying with
"Invalid parameters". This fixes issue #109 and fixes issue #110.
