rethought --relaxed change
Better to make it not be surprising and slow, than surprising and fast. --raw can be used when it needs to be really fast. Implemented adding a youtube-dl supported url to an existing file. This commit was sponsored by andrea rota.

* Use youtube-dl rather than quvi to download media from web pages,
since quvi is not being actively developed and youtube-dl supports
many more sites.
- * addurl --relaxed no longer checks for embedded media, since youtube-dl
- does not allow doing so without hitting the network, which would make
- this no faster than addurl --fast. Use addurl --fast instead if you
- want embedded media to be downloaded.
+ * addurl --relaxed got slower, since youtube-dl has to hit the network
+ to check for embedded media. If you relied on --relaxed not hitting the
+ network for speed reasons, using --relaxed --raw will get the old level
+ of speed, but can't be used for urls with embedded videos.
* importfeed now downloads things linked to by feeds, even when they are
not media files.
