Update user agent strings for agent aliases #612

Closed takatea closed 1 year ago

takatea commented 1 year ago

I think user agent aliases of Mechanize looks useful for developer, but actually unusable because they are very old. They looks need to be updated.

In addition, this PR contains an example to fetch latest user agents from WhatIsMyBrowser.com. Especially, The service provide APIs and it requires payment, so public web site content may be a preview. Therefore, to avoid pirating, I did not fully automate this process to update user agent aliases.

Thank you for submitting this! I've kicked off CI and I think this update (and the example which helps keep us up to date) is very helpful.

Looks good. I updated the docstring and will merge this shortly.
