Resolves #6676
The live stream's HLS multivariant/master playlist URL is static, with two additional CDNs to choose from:
https://masterpl.hls.nhkworld.jp/hls/w/live/master.m3u8https://media-tyo.hls.nhkworld.jp/hls/w/live/master.m3u8https://media-osa.hls.nhkworld.jp/hls/w/live/master.m3u8The HLS playlist URL is embedded in a minified+obfuscated JS file and passed as a query-string argument to the site's video-player iframe, which itself then replaces the URL's hostname with the available CDNs. Considering that the stream URL is static, this plugin should be removed.
