Describe your suggested feature

Hello, I would like to suggest allowing the user to use Anilist Cover Image rather than the Site Image. Some extension's cover image of a series/anime is low quality or mixed (e.g. some are high quality cover image while others are low quality).

Logic: In the Settings:

*Anilist Sync is required to be enabled to enable Use Anilist Cover

If both are turned on, after the user refresh their library. Aniyomi will start replacing the saved anime/manga cover image to Anilist Cover Image.

To ensure that it doesn't put strain to Anilist server. There could be a parameter added per saved anime/manga that tags this record is using Anilist Cover

Current Setup At the moment, if you want to update a Cover. You'll have to manually download the cover image somewhere else and replace each anime/manga one by one.

There isn't always a need for a global setting, but I see where you're coming from. If the setting is implemented, it would be useful to let the user choose between off global and selective only.

When choosing the latter, you will still have to visit the edit cover section of your libraries entry. From there we'll see a new button besides the pencil and save, which commands aniyomi to download the cover from anilist (or maybe a few more sources, like trakt, MAL or SIMKL)
