Bot-based backport to release-24.05, triggered by a label in #327480.

  • Before merging, ensure that this backport is acceptable for the release.
    • Even as a non-commiter, if you find that it is not acceptable, leave a comment.

The sendtokodi plugin for Kodi can use both yt-dlp and youtube_dl to
play back various URLs. Both of these packages have been susceptible to
CVE-2024-38519. But while yt-dlp is still maintained and was patched,
youtube_dl is unmaintained and thus known-vulnerable.

Patch out the dependency on youtube_dl so that sendtokodi will only ever
use yt-dlp to resolve URLs.
