YAML isn't part of the Python standard library, while JSON is.
If we want `setup.py` to dynamically parse the available integration
manifest files in order to populate the extra dependencies, then it's
better to rely on a JSON format for manifest files - the parser is part
of the standard library and it doesn't require the user to install
`pyyaml` before `platypush`.

Too many things were falling apart, and many others of MPlayer's "API
smells" had never been addressed.
The plugin has now largely been rewritten, and some workarounds (like
accessory monitoring processes) have been added to deal with the fact
that events like end-of-file aren't published by the player, and some
polling is required.
I hadn't paid attention to this plugin in a while and the newest mpv API
has diverged so much that it was entirely incompatible with recent mpv
versions.
`youtube-dl` is mostly dead and there are several forks available, thus
we need to give the user the ability to pick which `youtube-dl`
executable fork they want to use.
Among these, `yt-dlp` is probably the most maintained today and it's
also included in many default repos, so it's been added as an extra
requirement for all the media plugins.
Closes: #268

Added an `add_dependencies` plugin to the Sphinx build process that
parses the manifest files of the scanned backends and plugins and
automatically generates the documentation for the required dependencies
and triggered events.
This means that those dependencies are no longer required to be listed
in the docstring of the class itself.
Also in this commit:
- Black/LINT for some integrations that hadn't been touched in a long
time.
- Deleted some leftovers from previous refactors (deprecated
`backend.mqtt`, `backend.zwave.mqtt`, `backend.http.request.rss`).
- Deleted deprecated `inotify` backend - replaced by `file.monitor` (see
#289).

- If a Python optional dependency is available as a system package on
the target system, try and install it that route rather than pip. It's
usually faster and it decreases the risk of breaking system packages.
- Added support for apk dependencies in manifest files. This brings the
number of distros officially supported by all the extensions to four:
- Alpine
- Arch
- Debian
- Ubuntu
- Removed replication of logic between media.get_youtube_url (action) and media.get_youtube_video_url (internal method)
- Added differentiation between MediaPlayEvent and MediaResumeEvent
