What?
This PR fixes YouTube video playback failures in Safari on Product pages.
Why?
YouTube videos failed to load in Safari (Error 153) due to missing the Referer header. We fixed this by setting
referrerpolicybefore the iframe's first request. However, lazy loading meanssrcis only set when the video enters the viewport—by then Safari may have already processed the iframe without respecting the policy. To ensure the policy is respected from the begining, we bypass lazy loading in Safari by settingsrcdirectly afterreferrerpolicy, while other browsers continue usingdata-srcfor lazy loading.Requirements
