electronplayer: drop 

ElectronPlayer had been unmaintained and its repository archived since October 28, 2024.

It evidently had already been struggling to function for years, judging by [the section titled
"The Pain of Widevine"](https://github.com/oscartbeaumont/ElectronPlayer/blob/master/README.md#the-pain-of-widevine) 
in its README file, and the last commit dates from October 9, 2021, over three years before the
repository was archived.

All in all, it is a dead project that had been broken for years, and we shouldn't continue to
support it in 25.05.
