List a video's caption languages

The caption languages a video offers, creator-uploaded ('manual') and YouTube speech recognition ('auto'), so you can pick one before calling /transcript. One entry per language and caption type. default_language_code is what /transcript returns when no language is given. A video with captions turned off returns an empty list. Costs 1 credit per successful call, like /transcript.
