Applying PyTrakt fixes

[glensc]

So, we have a problem that the only maintainer of PyTrakt has decided to Ghost everything from GitHub:

• PyTrakt Maintenance moogar0880/PyTrakt#199

How do we solve this?

One idea was to just use git branch, without pip publishing:

• Use trakt from git repository #984

will this work? or do we need to publish to pip using some new name?

The alternative is to ditch the package, and use something new? altho I submitted quite a bunch of fixes and refactoring to PyTrakt repository in January 2022.

@twolaw you have no opinion?

I think it's a good idea.

will this work?

A test could answer the question.

I talked about it 2 years ago (#19 (comment)) but it's a difficult choice and we're not sure it solves the problem. IMHO it's not worth it.
