[FEATURE] -k/--extract-link flag for extracting links #360

Description

@Jazztache

Describe the feature / change you'd like.

A flag that would allow you to extract the link of the media you are about to play, instead of downloading it with -d or playing it by default.
Additional context:

I would appreciate the ability for extracting just the links from search results in mov-cli. This would be good, as I can then echo it into a list of links to be used in scripts.

One script I have takes in a YouTube link, downloads it to my system, plays it and then asks me if I want to move it to a 'Watched' folder. This isn't the kind of functionality that mov-cli should implement, but enabling link extraction as a feature allows people to make their own implementations of such systems by piping the output of the command into programs or using command substitution.

It's a simple change that would allow for a lot of possibilities for scripters to do creative or practical things with.
