In youtube-dl, `-i` ignores both download and post-processing error, and
treats the download as successful even if the post-processor fails.
yt-dlp used to skip the entire video on either error and there was no
option to ignore the post-processing errors like youtube-dl does.
By splitting the option into two, now either just the download errors
(--no-abort-on-error, default on CLI) or all errors (--ignore-errors)
can be ignored as per the users' needs
Closes #893
SponsorBlock options:
* The fetched sponsor sections are written to infojson
* `--sponsorblock-remove` removes specified chapters from file
* `--sponsorblock-mark` marks the specified sponsor sections as chapters
* `--sponsorblock-chapter-title` to specify sponsor chapter template
* `--sponsorblock-api` to use a different API
Related improvements:
* Split `--embed-chapters` from `--embed-metadata`
* Add `--remove-chapters` to remove arbitrary chapters
* Add `--force-keyframes-at-cuts` for more accurate cuts when removing and splitting chapters
Deprecates all `--sponskrub` options

* Support direct `/player/` URL
* Treat the different versions of an episode as different formats of a single video. So `experience_id` can no longer be used as the video `id` and the `episode_id` is used instead. This means that all existing archives will break
* Extractor options `language` and `version` to pre-select them
* Compat option `seperate-video-versions` to fall back to old behavior (including using the old video IDs)
Closes #428
The updater now uses `.update.run_update` and not `.update.update_self`.
Although I don't expect anyone to be using the updater via API, a wrapper `update_self` is provided for compatibility just in case
