The exception handling for database connections results in an
`ex` variable which Ameba sees as overshadowing the `ex` used by the
`ex` block arg used to define the HTTP status code 500 handler below.
Although this is a non-issue since the db connection exception handling
will cause Invidious to exit, Ameba's nature as a static checker means
that it isn't aware of this.
The simplest fix without a dirty ameba ignore comment is to rename `ex`
within the Kemal handler block below, since `ex` within a begin rescue
block is a Crystal convention that will also cause Ameba to raise when
not adhered to.
textcaptcha.com seems to be down since April and it does not appear that
service will be restored.
Text captchas can be easily automated using free LLMs, so keeping the
text captcha is more like a gate to create accounts in mass on public
Invidious instances.
It also gives headaches like bots automating account creation to modify
the videos that appear popular page of each instance (since the popular
page is based on the subscriptions of the registered users).

This commit automates the process of documenting the licenses of
Invidious Javascript files through a compile time macro in the
licenses.ecr template file.
This should hopefully help keep the license documentation up-to-date
and allow extensions like LibreJS to always be able to load the latest
Javascript files of Invidious.
Currently only Invidious's first-party Javascript files are supported.
In the future it should be possible to leverage videojs-dependencies.yml
to automatically document the Javascript licenses for
VideoJS and co. as well.
