Currently for youtube channels (UC) the seasons and episode order are set\ordered by file modification date. On my system I have numerous files where the modification date is wrong for one reason or another and episodes are in the wrong seasons or in the wrong order.
When downloading the channel, I begin all filenames with yyyymmdd - * so the information to order the files is already in the filename. I modified the scanner to order files by filename and then extract the season from the date in the filename.
Other than the sorting change, I believe all other edits should be transparent to users that don't follow this naming convention - but to ensure it wouldn't affect users unintentionally I tied the new behavior to an option boolean and defaulted it to off. As I know some start their filenames in a similar way with date first I figured others could benefit from this change.
