Fixes #4212
Since this isn't the first time that the output of
--help
didn't get checked after modifying the argparse help texts, I've added some tests.I've also moved the
if args.help
statement to the top ofmain()
and prioritized--help
by doing that, like it is common with other CLI applications. Streamlink shouldn't suppress the help text if there's an input URL set.
