Unfortunately, it is now required to be logged in to access the HD version of
profile pictures. When attempting to download profile pictures without --login,
a warning message is printed once, and the lower-quality versions are obtained.
For backwards compatibility, already-downloaded profile pictures are
overwritten if the now-obtainable version is assumed to be of better quality
than the existing one (determined by file size vs Content-Length).
The iPhone endpoint is accessed with code exhumed from
c355338010a2a94c8a75f3001d0ea879b4f42383. Also, this reverts "Profile: don't
access removed iphone info endpoint" 08327c41172e125a003b7bb6a015b04c4645ef27.
This fixes#209.

The commit mode ensures pictures are not corrupted when Instaloader is
unexpectedly interrupted. In the case that the last picture is corrupted
because of an interruption, Instaloader will redownload the picture.
Since the metadata is the last object saved to disk, we can consider a
post as "committed" if its json metadata file exists and is not
malformed. Instaloader should download any posts which are not
committed. Downside is commit mode requires metadata to be saved.

Fixes#165.
To download (S = Stories, P = Profile Pic, p = Posts)
p --no-profile-pic
P --profile-pic-only
Pp (default)
S --no-profile-pic --stories-only
Sp --no-profile-pic --stories
SP --stories-only
SPp --stories
If using --stories or --stories-only the stories got donwloaded along
with the profiles one by one. Now, the stories get downloaded in a
similar aproach like when using the :stories target, i.e.
download_stories() gets only called once.
Profile.has_highlight_reels is broken and now always returns true.
This fixes#153.
If an expression evaluates to None, an empty string is yielded, rather
than 'None'.
Blanks (and newlines) are strip()ed from the formatted strings, which
also avoids creation of whitespace-only textfiles.
save_captions parameter to Instaloader constructor has been removed, as
it is equivalent to setting both {post,storyitem}_metadata_txt_pattern
to '' (empty string).
Instaloader.save_caption() now prints the '[{old}] updated [{new}]' if
the caption was updated, rather than printing the new caption twice,
which was confusing.
