Revert "[postprocessor/embedthumbnail] Allow mkv to embed thumbnails"

This reverts commit 7360db05b43741c2dfa1fd024e9c2f013ed97c9e.

This commit was added as an attempt to fix #6046. Unfortunately, the fix
is completely wrong. As reported on #10359, embedded thumbnails are not
displayed in VLC, and Se7en on IRC reports that the embedded thumbnail
misleads mpv as well.

The correct way is using -attachment of ffmpeg, while the current
run_ffmpeg_multiple_files API can't handle it cleanly.
