[aryion] add 'recursive' option (fixes #832)
This is enabled by default and will recursively go through all
(sub)folders in an artist's gallery.

The old method of using "Latest Updates" lists can be restored by
disabling this option.

Configuration
#############
| Configuration files for *gallery-dl* use a JSON-based file format.
| For a (more or less) complete example with options set to their default values,
see `gallery-dl.conf <gallery-dl.conf>`__.
| For a configuration file example with more involved settings and options,
see `gallery-dl-example.conf <gallery-dl-example.conf>`__.
This file lists all available configuration options and their descriptions.
Contents
========
1) `Extractor Options`_
2) `Extractor-specific Options`_
3) `Downloader Options`_
4) `Output Options`_

7) `API Tokens & IDs`_
Extractor Options
=================
Each extractor is identified by its ``category`` and ``subcategory``.
The ``category`` is the lowercase site name without any spaces or special
characters, which is usually just the module name
(``pixiv``, ``danbooru``, ...).
The ``subcategory`` is a lowercase word describing the general functionality
of that extractor (``user``, ``favorite``, ``manga``, ...).
Each one of the following options can be specified on multiple levels of the
configuration tree:
================== =====
Base level: ``extractor.<option-name>``
Category level: ``extractor.<category>.<option-name>``
Subcategory level: ``extractor.<category>.<subcategory>.<option-name>``
================== =====
A value in a "deeper" level hereby overrides a value of the same name on a
lower level. Setting the ``extractor.pixiv.filename`` value, for example, lets
you specify a general filename pattern for all the different pixiv extractors.
Using the ``extractor.pixiv.user.filename`` value lets you override this
general pattern specifically for ``PixivUserExtractor`` instances.
The ``category`` and ``subcategory`` of all extractors are included in the
output of ``gallery-dl --list-extractors``. For a specific URL these values
can also be determined by using the ``-K``/``--list-keywords`` command-line
option (see the example below).
extractor.*.filename
--------------------
=========== =====
Type ``string``
Example ``"{manga}_c{chapter}_{page:>03}.{extension}"``
Description A `format string`_ to build the resulting filename
for a downloaded file.
The available replacement keys depend on the extractor used. A list
of keys for a specific one can be acquired by calling *gallery-dl*
with the ``-K``/``--list-keywords`` command-line option.
For example:
.. code::
$ gallery-dl -K http://seiga.nicovideo.jp/seiga/im5977527
Keywords for directory names:
-----------------------------
category
seiga
subcategory
image
Keywords for filenames:
-----------------------
category
seiga
extension
None
image-id
5977527
subcategory
image
Note: Even if the value of the ``extension`` key is missing or
``None``, it will filled in later when the file download is
starting. This key is therefore always available to provide
a valid filename extension.
=========== =====
extractor.*.directory
---------------------
=========== =====
Type ``list`` of ``strings``
Example ``["{category}", "{manga}", "c{chapter} - {title}"]``
Description A list of `format strings`_ for the resulting target directory.

segment, which will be joined together and appended to the
base-directory_ to form the complete target directory path.
=========== =====

depending on the local operating system
* ``"unix"``: ``"/"``

escaped with backslashes, e.g. ``"\\[\\]"``
=========== =====

------------------------
=========== =====
Type ``string``
Default ``"_"``
Description The replacement character(s) for

Example | ``"2019-01-01T00:00:00"``,
| ``"2019"`` with ``"%Y"`` as `date-format`_,
| ``1546297200``
Description A |Date|_ value represents a specific point in time.
* If given as ``string``, it is parsed according to `date-format`_.
* If given as ``integer``, it is interpreted as UTC timestamp.
=========== =====
Path
----
=========== =====
Type ``string`` or ``list`` of ``strings``
Example | ``"file.ext"``,
| ``"~/path/to/file.ext"``,
| ``"$HOME/path/to/file.ext"``,

Description A |Path|_ is a ``string`` representing the location of a file

is supported.
In Windows environments, backslashes (``"\"``) can, in addition to
forward slashes (``"/"``), be used as path separators.
Because backslashes are JSON's escape character,
they themselves have to be escaped.
The path ``C:\path\to\file.ext`` has therefore to be written as
``"C:\\path\\to\\file.ext"`` if you want to use backslashes.
