fix: delete yt-dlp partial files when it fails (v1.0.0.14)

yt-dlp removes its separate video/audio files after a successful merge, but
a failed run (e.g. HTTP 403 mid-download) left "<name>.f137.mp4.part" etc.
in the trailer folder, even when the built-in fallback then succeeded.
Always remove files sharing the output's "<name>." prefix after yt-dlp runs.
