ytmdesktop

It's been a while since a release, and there's a few things which I would have loved to have included within this version which are some reasonably mature PRs, however just felt it was worth releasing something sooner rather than later.

https://github.com/ytmdesktop/ytmdesktop/issues/866 - Can't sign in, Browser or app may not be secure & https://github.com/ytmdesktop/ytmdesktop/issues/916 - stuck on loading page until window resize are still known issues in these builds, and please review them for when and if they get fixed into the Development version.
