get_playlist is limited to 100 videos

[IggyIggz1999]

Currently it appears that the get_playlist function is only able to collect 100 videos, and if the playlist is longer, it simply skips over the remaining videos. Is it possible for this to be fixed?

I was even thinking if there is a way to sort get_playlist. That way, one gets the newest 100..
@IggyIggz1999 have you been able to find a fix, yet?

@IggyIggz1999, @jobic10 added a temporary solution. Should work until a dedicated one is found. Because I am not too good with requests, my version is slow (check all videos from channel and check if they are in the playlist), but should do for now if someone really needs to extract video data from long playlists >100 videos, which was a problem before. I assume that a playlist can only contain videos from one channel. I think this is the case for public once.
I also base on latest release of 2.5.1 so some changes on master branch were rolledback. PR
