Make Youtube Embeds GDPR compliant

See original GitHub issue

Currently, we use Youtube embeds for videos on the site. But Youtube is using cookies to track user’s info. If we don’t want to have to ask a user’s permission to play Youtube videos, we’ll need to find an alternative to youtube. Youtube does offer youtube-nocookie.com, but that just places tracking info in local storage and adds cookies once the user presses play.
