Description

The shaka-player project moved their documentation from Google App Engine to GitHub pages a few months ago and the app spot URLs now redirect to the GitHub pages site. This pull request updates our in-app error messages to point to the new URL and also adds anchors for the error codes so that browers scroll to the correct one automatically.
While I was changing that area of the code I also added JSON.stringify to the shaka-player and FreeTube data sections as most users don't bother expanding those objects when report errors, so this this should hopefully make users' screenshots more useful to us.

Testing

Force a shaka-player error or just manually open the URL in your brower and confirm that it works.
