Need to add a VTT parser; currently there's only a SRT parser that produces VTT-compatible objects which we can output in either format. Shouldn't be hard to add, just didn't get to it yet for the MVP. :D

Related issue (afaik): T368298 (e.g. currently videos imported with video2commons don't import subtitles if these are VTTs and they also aren't converted to srt and then imported or added to any maintenance cat)
