Motivation for changes:
IMDB blocks login attempts after a certain number, thus preventing using
imdb_list.By caching login cookies, user ID & list ID, we can directly retrieve IMDB list without having to re-login, circumventing the issue
Detailed changes:
Using SimplePersistence to create dict with the following data: KEY isUsing dedicated tablesconfig['login'], JSON value is{"watchlist": "ls032578336", "cookies": "cookie_dict, "user_id": "ur65953086"}Addressed issues:
Log and/or tests output (preferably both):

To Do:
Perhaps pushing the meaning of "SimplePersistence" to its edge. Maybe a proper table would be more suitable here. My reasoning was that while this ALLOWS using multiple login names and lists, the typical use case of this plugin will not require that.No longer relevant, using dedicated tables.
