Summary of proposed changes
Hello Sam, thank you for taking the time to check out this PR.
Currently, plyr can't fetch preview thumbnails when they're stored on a secure CDN. To solve this, we simply need to set withCredentials to true on the xhr request object in the preview-thumbnails plugin.
The solution I've proposed will solve the use cases in the GitHub issues raised above about this. Jadson from issue #2589 did suggest a more elegant solution. However, as this codebase is using a custom fetch() function, it doesn't make sense to do it that way, perhaps in the future it could be considered.
I've tried my best to follow your coding and language style, and if you have any questions or require any changes please let me know.
