Switch to yt-dlp from youtube-dl

Addresses: dxli94#56

./start_kit/video_downloader.py was not working with some youtube
videos, due to youtube-dl out of date.

Therefore this commit updates ./start_kit/video_downloader.py to use yt-dlp which is
a more up to date fork of youtube-dl.

It looks like youtube-dl is under new maintenance and may become
viable in the future. Therefore the youtube_downloader variable can be
changes in ./start_kit/video_downloader.py to easily switch between the two.

Relevant github issue for youtube-dl status: ytdl-org/youtube-dl#30568

+**yt-dlp vs youtube-dl** youtube-dl has had low maintance for a while now and does not work for some youtube videos, see this [issue](https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/30568).
+[yt-dlp](https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp) is a more up to date fork, which seems to work for all youtube videos. Therefore `./start_kit/video_downloader.py` uses yt-dlp by default but can be switched back to youtube-dl in the future by adjusting the `youtube_downloader` variable.
