ytdl_hook: check youtube-dl version if it breaks
Some failures by youtube-dl prompt the user to submit a bug report. If such a failure occurs, we can compare youtube-dl's version to the current calendar date to see how old it is. We don't make this check on every youtube-dl failure, as failing to extract an URL is quite common, and waiting for a second blocking python interpreter startup for every such case would be a bit unpleasant. Here the assumption is made that any youtube-dl version older than 3 months is probably severely out of date. Users will be warned about this. We also output the trimmed stderr of youtube-dl with msg.error, as this appeared to have been the behaviour of utils.subprocess without stderr capturing. Since this uses mp.command_native now, we'll have to do this ourselves where appropriate.
