shortcuts plugin blocks native MediaSession api #204

Description

see #50
After spending tons of hours researching the MediaSession API and way of implementation,
I realized Electron supported it all along, it just wasnt working because of the shortcuts plugin

Youtube Music even set it up automatically for each song, no need to do anything,,
⚠️ that includes media key controls, so =>
disabling the shortcuts plugin will still let you use mediakeys control + have native MediaSession support

[This has been tested on Windows && Linux with the help of helpful guys over at Electron]

So anyway I think you probably should atleast remove shortcuts from the default plugins, at this state it only removes features. - people that want to disable that overlay could just enable the plugin
