[cleanup] Remove questionable extractors #9911

Closed seproDev closed 2 weeks ago

seproDev commented 2 weeks ago

Closes #6279 Closes #6799

These extractors do not belong in the yt-dlp codebase, since they violate the policy for new extractors.  Given the plugin system, there is no need to have these high-risk extractors be part of the main repo.  All of the removed extractors were either inherited from youtube-dl, or the nature of their respective sites was not known to the maintainers at the time of their merge.
