YouTube is upping their throttling by serving 360p videos. Most likely to give us and genAI scraping a bad time on purpose.
Resolution assertion will be enabled by default. It will:
- Require > 360 height (pixels)
- Can configure the width by setting `resolution_assert_height_gte: 1080` to require 1080p, or any desired value
- Can disable resolution assert by setting `enable_resolution_assert: False`
To protect new users, all prebuilt preset (excluding Soundcloud and Bandcamp) will include throttle protection by default.
> How do I disable?
Set the override variable `enable_throttle_protection: False`.
This can be done on a per-subscription basis and/or in the top __preset__ section to apply to all presets:
```
__preset__:
overrides:
enable_throttle_protection: False
```
> What if I already use throttle protection?
Your settings will override whatever values are set in the defaults.

Adds the ability to make thumbnails square, both file and embedded. Usage:
```
my_preset:
square_thumbnail: True
```
Will soon enable this by default for all music-based presets with a toggle to disable.
Huge thanks to @Kentaro1043 for crafting the ffmpeg command for this!

Adds the ability to toggle whether to use `upload_date` or `release_date` in the date_range plugin, which is used to cull older videos.
```
date_range:
type: "upload_date"
```
If using the Only Recent preset, it will be automatically applied based on whether your season/episode ordering uses release date or upload date.

Implements https://github.com/jmbannon/ytdl-sub/issues/1182
Adds the ability to change the `keep_files_date_eval` (traditionally upload_date_standardized) to any date, so long as its in the form of YYYY-MM-DD.
Will be able to use this to have episodes get deleted based on their release_date or epoch_date, instead of their upload_date.
