Affiliate Highlights Should Be Public Even With Sub-Only Archives Enabled

When "Subscriber-only archives" is enabled, it also makes all highlights of archived VODs visible to only subscribers. I believe that the point of highlights is to bring in new viewers -- they are an easy way for people who have just discovered the channel to quickly see what the channel is about. Therefore they shouldn't by default also be Subscriber-only. We should either have a separate preference for making Highlights/Clips/Trailers Subscriber-only, or have them just default to always being public. This makes it easier to get new viewers while still keeping the value of our Subscription high, because only subs get access to the full VODs and also make the highlights/clips from it. For music/concert streams this feels especially important because we want to show people a taste of what the show is like while still keeping our past shows only available to subscribers.
