Dropping Lighthouse and Yellow Lab Tools Service Support

[cockroacher]

As we continue to improve webperf_core by using version specific dependencies we should move away from using any latest version.
One step closer to this is removing external API support for Lighthouse and Yellow Lab Tools.
Instead, we'll emphasize local support to enhance user experience and streamline development workflows. Here are the key benefits:

1. Improved Privacy and Security:

   • By relying solely on local analysis, we eliminate potential privacy concerns related to external API calls.
   • Developers can rest assured that their site data remains confidential within their own environment.

2. Reduced Latency and Dependency:

   • Local analysis reduces latency by avoiding network requests to external services.
   • Developers can work seamlessly without relying on third-party APIs, ensuring consistent performance.

3. Customization and Flexibility:

   • Local support allows developers to fine-tune analysis parameters and customize tool behavior.
   • Teams can adapt the tools to their specific needs, improving efficiency and accuracy.

4. Offline Usage:

   • External APIs require an internet connection, limiting usage in offline scenarios.
   • Local support ensures that developers can analyze sites even without an internet connection.

5. Simplified Maintenance and User Experience:

   • Focusing on local versions simplifies code maintenance.
   • Users benefit from a straightforward setup process and reduced complexity.

6. Version-Specific Consistency:

   • Using local versions ensures consistent behavior across different tool versions.
   • Developers won't encounter unexpected changes due to external API updates.
