Description
This PR removes the long deprecated (at least since xbmc.Monitor().abortRequested()) was introduced xbmc.abortRequested flag. This method is not documented in the API since the migration to doxygen/codedocs. In fact I suspect some of the errors seen in #17705 are in fact false positives caused by this old mechanism.
@MilhouseVH I'd probably recommend to include this in your builds and wait ~ a week to see if any regression shows.
Motivation and Context
Cleanup, encourage to use the monitor method instead
How Has This Been Tested?
Tested netflix, tubecast, flask-webinterface-demo addon, and kodi aborts correctly
