Describe the Feature/Enhancement

increased options for default skip forward/back times in the web player were add with #1995 but the mobile still only has 5/10/30 second options. Would be great to have the additional skip times that were added to web app available in the mobile apps as well.

Thanks!

Why would this be helpful?

additional skip times are helpful to more easily navigate through a podcast,skip past ads, etc.

I took a stab at implementing this in #1767 and I the biggest challenge here is actually the lack of numeric glyphs in the Material Symbols font. They only have 5, 10, and 30, which we're already using (see: https://fonts.google.com/icons?icon.query=forward)

I worked around that but there are some tradeoffs. More info in the commit message in https://github.com/advplyr/audiobookshelf-app/pull/1767
