Pull request description

Routes bellow files under src/invidious/routes/ are used to render ECR, and they can take variables from the functions, they appear as unused variables for Ameba, but they are used in the ECR files as the comments says, but it also excluded the src/invidious/routes/api files, which are used for the API and do not render any ECR, so useless assigns in src/invidious/routes/api files can be safely removed.

Summary by CodeRabbit

• Chores
  • Updated linting configuration to apply the unused-assignment exception only to route files directly under the designated routes directory.
