fix: kept file protection, skip/autoplay, TTS routing, video ID expansion

- _cleanup_track: never delete files from kept directory (data/music/)
  even when track.keep=False -- fixes kept files vanishing on replay
- !kept rm: skip to next track if removing the currently playing one
- !skip: silent (no reply), restarts play loop for autoplay on empty queue
- TTS plays through merlin's own connection instead of derp's, preventing
  choppy audio when music and TTS compete for the same output buffer
- !play recognizes bare YouTube video IDs (11-char alphanumeric)
- !kept rm <id> subcommand for removing individual kept tracks
