Deprecate disablecontrols option of TMH
Open, Needs TriagePublic

Description

TMH file transclusion currently has an option to hide 3 specific controls (The menu, the subtitles menu and the fullscreen button). This seems like an over engineered solution that we don't really need. Instead we should use classes and CSS styling to achieve the same effect.
