textcaptcha.com seems to be down since April and it does not appear that
service will be restored.
Text captchas can be easily automated using free LLMs, so keeping the
text captcha is more like a gate to create accounts in mass on public
Invidious instances.
It also gives headaches like bots automating account creation to modify
the videos that appear popular page of each instance (since the popular
page is based on the subscriptions of the registered users).
Fixes https://github.com/iv-org/invidious/issues/5295

The automatic instance redirection has the potential to pick
the same instance the user is currently on. This is especially

today.
This PR checks the domain of the instance and ensures that it is not
the same as the current instane before redirecting the user to it.
Otherwise, it just sends the user to rediret.invidious.io
- language id

- main/default track
Sort audio formats so that main/default is first (for clients not using dash)
* Note: this should be a non-breaking change; if audio track info is not availablle, the behavior does not change from current
