yesplaymusic: drop

It seems like YesPlayMusic has been effectively abandoned upstream with numerous usability and API bugs preventing it from working, while using old, unsupported Node versions (14 and 16) and Electron versions (22). While there have been forks and projects created in its image (see qier222/YesPlayMusic#2344), it would be better if we drop YesPlayMusic first, and package any fork that manages to garner enough momentum.
