[doc] Remove Homebrew and MacPorts installation instructions

Browse source 
Homebrew's formula was [deprecated on 23 Nov 2023](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/155315/changes),
[disabled on 22 Nov 2024](d579fce6af),
and [removed altogether on 24 Nov 2025](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/pull/255668/changes).

The [MacPorts port](https://ports.macports.org/port/youtube-dl/)
is still stuck in the old, obsolete v2021.12.17,
so recommending it is also not helpful.

Removing these installation methods from the README for now,
until a [new release is made](https://github.com/ytdl-org/youtube-dl/issues/31585)
and those packages get reinstated/updated.
