Skip thumbnail fetch if autoplay is ON
It's useful to show the thumbnail as the player's backdrop when Video Autoplay is OFF, but it's a wasted fetch when it's ON because the videojs component will be blocking it.

Although it's the same image as the ClaimPreview, this one will be in full size, so a fetch will always happen.

Aside: videojs handles the backdrop for the audio and embed case, so this change won't affect those items.
```
  <VideoJs
    poster={isAudio || (embedded && !autoplayIfEmbedded) ? thumbnail : ''}
  />
```

Future: for "mobile + autoplay=OFF", we should consider using the optimized thumbnail. 6074 should help.
