remove spotube (#3372)

🚨 Spotube is banned from using "Spotify™ API" 🚨

The developer of Spotube has received a cease and desist letter from Spotify USA Inc. and Spotify AB, asserting a legal threat concerning the distribution and development of any application that utilizes Spotify’s data API in conjunction with content from YouTube® to facilitate ad-free playback of music tracks. The letter contends that this specific use of the Spotify™ APIs contravenes the Spotify™ Agreements and may also infringe upon the rights of music rights holders.

Consequently, as the official maintainer of Spotube, I will immediately cease all forms of official distribution and development of Spotube that continue to employ the aforementioned 'Spotify™ APIs'

Their exact reasoning: (any) "uses of Spotify’s data API in connection with content from YouTube to provide ad-free playback of music tracks. The use of the Spotify APIs in this manner violates the Spotify Agreements and may also violate the rights of music rights holders."
