Add YT video URL to doc (#816)

For a final assignment in a class, I've created a How-To video that showcases how to get setup with API credentials, Redirect URIs, and Spotify Developer Accounts, all of which are necessary prerequisites to using the Spotipy library.

I wanted to do this because, in my past experience, the most frustrating thing about working with APIs and libraries is authentication. Spotipy does a nice job of wrapping some of this and making it easier on the developer, but it still takes some setup before successful use.

Specifically, my video goes through the following:
* Installing Spotipy
* Setting up a Spotify Developer Account
* Configuring the Redirect URI
* Getting the Client Secret and Public Keys
* Setting the envars for use with Spotipy
* Running a sample piece of code from Spotipy to show that things are setup properly
