 Embeds: Remove Facebook and Instagram as an oEmbed Source

 Facebook has depracated all non-authenticated endpoints for Facebook and
 Instagram.

 See: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/plugins/oembed-legacy
 See also: https://make.wordpress.org/core/2020/09/22/facebook-and-
 instagram-embeds-to-be-deprecated-october-24th/

 With this change, endpoints are being removed. If a site is dependent on
 this feature, they need to pass either an app or client token. There are a
 few plugins that add this functionality.

 Fixes #50861.
