[FEATURE] Automatically handle playlists ordered in reverse (#948)

Playlists have always been a pain-point with ytdl-sub. If an author adds new videos to the end of a playlist, as opposed to the front, it breaks ytdl-sub's intuition of incremental scraping by breaking on the first (oldest) video. This update now makes it possible to handle this in the prebuilt TV Show presets:

  • Add each URL variable (url, url2, ...) into the download portion of the subscription twice
  • First definition is what we all know and use, simply scrapes first-to-last, then downloads last-to-first
  • Second definition does the following:
    • Check to see if a URL is a YouTube playlist URL, if so...
      • Set the field to download, but with modifications to scrape last-to-first, then download first-to-last
    • Otherwise...
      • Set the field to an empty string, which means ytdl-sub will skip it
