2f767fb24a mad: remove plugin
We have better replacements such as the mpg123 plugin.
The main reason to keep around mad was for 'freeform'
mp3 support, but mpg123 can handle those too nowadays.
Also, mad is GPL and has been unmaintained for years.

Building with Meson should work on both Linux and Windows, but may
need a few more tweaks on other operating systems.
