Parallel downloads #139

Individual YouTube videos have pretty slow download speeds. Downloading multiple videos in parallel is able to saturate my download. I'd like to see parallel downloads added for faster archival. Thanks.

I need to have a look into if yt-dlp can download multiple videos on the same client; I would think that YouTube ratelimits parallel downloads a lot more. I do have a rewrite in the pipeline which allows multiple clients to connect to a central database
