(1) what should I do to get the absolute URIs of all the segments?
(2) I think `M3U8(builtins.object).files` should return all the URIs of the segments , but why present the key uri along with them ? This makes the result difficult to use , for example if I want to use the returned result to download all the chunks, then I have to judge whether the first element is a key uri or not, so annoying! It would be better to create another method like `M3U8(builtins.object).key_uri` to specifically return the key uri .

Research direction
Start at the M3U8.files entry point and reproduce the supplied playlist example. Inspect how segment and key URIs are collected, then verify the expected absolute segment URIs and separate key URI behavior; the work is done when files can be used to download segments without treating the key as a segment.
