What this Pull Request (PR) does
This PR adds the ability to grab the transcript of a YouTube video with timestamps. The timestamps are formatted as
HH:MM:SS
and are prepended to each line of the transcript. The feature is enabled by the new--transcript-with-timestamps
flag, so it's similar to the existing--transcript
flag.Example future use-case
Providing a summary of a video that includes timestamps for quick navigation to specific parts of the video.

Caveats
The output containing timestamps significantly increases the length of the prompt sent to a model. This can lead to rate limiting. We may mitigate that issue by changing the timestamps' format.
I'm wondering about skipping seconds and concatenating lines under the same timestamp
HH:MM
