Create a new output, connected to a live input

client.Stream.LiveInputs.Outputs.New(ctx, liveInputIdentifier, params) (*Output, error)
POST/accounts/{account_id}/stream/live_inputs/{live_input_identifier}/outputs

Creates a new output that can be used to simulcast or restream live video to other RTMP or SRT destinations. Outputs are always linked to a specific live input — one live input can have many outputs.
