Summary

yt-dlp now requires a js runtime and suggests deno >=2.0yt-dlp/yt-dlp#15012

In addition to updating the yt-dlp package there is now also a recommended external javascript blob that needs to be installed. See theyt-dlp wiki for install options. Here, I've added the[default] dependency group which will also installyt-dlp-ejs containing that blob.

This ensures yt-dlp continues to work. I was seeing some intermittent issues with the media extractor before this. I've tested this branch by building a docker image and running it against my archivebox install and confirming that some URLs now archive media properly.

I don't know how often theyt-dlp-ejs package will end up needing to be updated which may or may not be an argument in favor of eventually having an option to use the option to run the external jsfrom npm but for now this sticks with baking an immutable docker image.

I also wasn't familiar with pdm but to update the pdm lock file I just ranpdm lock which seems to have worked but also updated quite a few other dependencies in that lockfile.
