Dropdown components should always be rendered under the root element, or
nasty effects caused by absolute parenting may end up hiding dropdown
elements regardless of their `z-index`.
The new approach uses a single `<DropdownContainer>` element in the
main `App` file. Each `<Dropdown>` component will push updates to the
bus whenever it triggers open/close events, and the dropdown component
to be rendered will be pushed upstream and rendered in the root element.
- Streaming and media subtitles endpoints moved from Flask to Tornado
routes - the old Flask streaming route no longer worked behind a
Tornado server.
- Storing the streaming state on Redis rather than in a local variable,
or different Tornado processes may end up with different copies of the
registry.

Instead of relying on the official Google YouTube API (limited, subject
to breaking changes with short/no notice depending on Google's strategy
against scrapers, and with an initial setup that has a high cost), we'll
just stick to Piped from now on.
It's free, it doesn't require API keys, it's unlikely to change, it's
not subject to Google's hostile practices against developers, and
anybody can run an instance.
`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
The base `media` plugin is abstract, hence the `Media` panel needs to
pass the current media plugin to the `Utils` mixins so it can pick the
right action.
- The default PopcornTime API host has changed, as popcorn-time.ga is no
longer available.
- The iMDb API now requires a paid tier even for a basic query. The
official iMDb API layer (and the API key requirement) has thus been
replaced with a dear ol' scraping of the frontend endpoint.
- Pass of Black/LINT.
This allows loading spinners, modals and other components with a real
fullscreen background to stretch over the required space, without being
covered by the navigator or other sibling components.
This also requires the collapsed navigator to have a 1px margin-right,
or its separation border won't be visible.
