Cloudinary allows you to add tags to an uploaded resource.
It also allows you to list resources with a specified tag.
The player leverages this ability and supports a creation of a playlist by a specified tag.
NOTE: In order to support resource listing by tag (required for 'playlist by tag' to work), make sure to enable it in the Cloudinary console: Settings | Security | Restricted image types | Resource list
