* [tiktok] support extracting videos directly without yt-dlp
* [tiktok] support extracting users directly without yt-dlp
* [tiktok] fixing logic, tests, linting errors
* [tiktok] implement tiktok-range support for non-yt-dlp user extractor
* [tiktok] Skip range filter if no ranges are given
* [tiktok] Remove debug code
* [tiktok] only check for faulty device IDs during the first couple of passes
I think the original yt-dlp solution assumes that if a device ID works once, it will always work.
Plus, my approach would cause needless retries in certain cases if hasMorePrevious does end up being wrong like the original algorithm accounts for. So let's copy the original algorithm here, too.
* [tiktok] support stories
* [tiktok] you can now extract audio without extracting photos
* [tiktok] add TiktokFollowingExtractor
* [tiktok] update supportedsites to include stories
* [tiktok] Keep tiktok-range option for no content user account test
It acts as a nice guard against that account suddenly having lots of posts to extract
* [tiktok] TiktokUserExtractor and TiktokFollowingExtractor rewrite
* [tiktok] Fix avatar naming convention to match that of posts

* [tiktok] remove old constant
* [tiktok] Support order-posts config item
* [tiktok] flake8
* [tiktok] Older Python versions don't support match

We should aim to avoid having pinned posts returned before non-pinned ones
* [tiktok] Add liked posts extraction
* [tiktok] Add reposts extraction
* [tiktok] Add saved posts extraction
* cleanup imports
* remove '# MARK:' comments
* remove & simplify 'except' statements
KeyboardInterrupt & SystemExit inherit from BaseException (not Exception)
and therefore don't need special handling
* split 'user' extractor
* move PATTERNs into their respective functions
* use dict comprehensions
* add only-matching test URLs for split user extractors
* update config docs
rename 'tiktok-user-extractor' to 'ytdl'
* document '"popular"' 'order-posts' value
* inline and remove 'util.chunk()'
[tiktok] Move avatar download to the user extractor, which results in more accurate metadata output (it would previously write the metadata of the video which the avatar was scraped from)
[tiktok] Fix tests and remove redundant user profile test
* Add TikTok photo support
#3061#4177

Respond to comments
Improve archiving and file naming
* Forgot to update supportedsites.md
* Support user profiles
* Fix indentation
* Prevent matching with more than one TikTok extractor
* Fix TikTok regex
* Support TikTok profile avatars
* Fix supportedsites.md
* TikTok: Ignore no formats error
In my limited experience, this doesn't mean that gallery-dl can't download the photo post (but this could mean that you can't download the audio)
* Fix error reporting message

vt.tiktok.com
www.tiktok.com/t/

instead of reusing unchanged input URLs
* [tiktok] combine 'post' and 'sharepost' extractors
* [tiktok] update default filenames
put 'id' and 'num' first to ensure better file order
* [tiktok] improve ytdl usage
- speed up extraction by passing '"extract_flat": True'
