* Allow slicing lists/strings using `field.start🔚step`
* A field can also be used as offset like `field1+num+field2`
* A default value can be given using `field|default`
* Capture all format strings and set it to `None` if invalid. This prevents invalid fields from causing errors
This reverts commit 0704d2224b.
This is a commit from `youtube-dlc`. It is not clear what the original purpose of this was. It seems to be a way for extractors to pass `title` and `id` through when the entry is processed by another extractor
* But `title` can already be passed through using `url_transparent`
* `id` is never supposed to be passed through since it could cause issues with archiving
* Treat `--sub-langs` entries as regex
* `all` can be used to refer to all the subtitles
* the language code can be prefixed with `-` to exclude it
* Deprecates `--all-subs`
Closes#253
* Renamed `--external-downloader-args` to `--downloader-args`
* Added `native` as an option for the downloader
* Use similar syntax to `--downloader-args` etc. Eg: `--downloader dash:native --downloader aria2c`
* Deprecated `--hls-prefer-native` and `--hls-prefer-ffmpeg` since the same can now be done with `--downloader "m3u8:native"` and `m3u8:ffmpeg` respectively
* Split `frag_urls` protocol into `m3u8_frag_urls` and `dash_frag_urls`
* Standardize shortening of protocol names with `downloader.shorten_protocol_name`
* If `--no-clean-infojson` is given, the video ids are saved/loaded from in the infojson along with their playlist index
* If a video entry that was not saved is requested, we fallback to using `webpage_url` to re-extract the entries

* Create `FFmpegPostProcessor.real_run_ffmpeg` that can accept multiple input/output files along with switches for each
* Rewrite `cli_configuration_args` and related functions
* Create `YoutubeDL._ensure_dir_exists` - this was previously defined in multiple places
* Fix error when there is no `protocol` in `info_dict`
* Move HLS byte range detection to `Aria2cFD` so that the download will fall back to the native downloader instead of ffmpeg
* Fix bug with getting no fragments in DASH
* Convert `check_results` in `can_download` to a generator
* All modules and binary names are changed
* All documentation references changed
* yt-dlp no longer loads youtube-dlc config files
* All URLs changed to point to organization account
