"My Episodes" URI not correctly handled: spotify:user:[ID]:collection:your-episodes

Bug Ticket

Describe the bug

The Spotify "Your Episodes" collection is associated with a user:[ID]:collection URI, similar to the URIs used with the "Liked Songs" collection. For example: spotify:user:1234567890:collection:your-episodes

Currently, when a "Your Episodes" URI is provided to the spotcast service trigger, it fails at the URI validation step without proceeding any further. Instead of rejecting the URI, the validator should recognize "Your Episodes" URIs as valid so that they can be passed along to spotipy's start_playback method. Implementation-wise, "Your Episodes" URIs should follow the exact same codepath as currently used with "Liked Songs" collection URIs.
