Option to download YouTube videos #410

YouTube videos can be downloaded if 'indirect downloads' are enabled in the settings for the video downloader - otherwise it only downloads .mp4 URLs. This is good but 'downloading YouTube videos' is a common enough use case that it would be useful to add a separate option: 'download YouTube links', or something along those lines
