`YandexVertis`

Yandex says YandexVertis is the search verticals robot and that it takes the general rules in robots.txt into account. YandexVerticals is a different token. The robot list says an agreement between Yandex and the site owner can override some robots.txt restrictions. This check does not apply that agreement.
