Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

There are a few extractors that don't have a hardcoded age_limit, which definitely should. These include:

• SpankBangIE
• SoundgasmIE
  • Note: this is a really bizarre website
• Even Pornhub
  • PornHubPlaylistIE
  • PornHubUserVideosIE

I need to use this library for a project at work, so I'm importing acceptable regexes to filter which sites should be sent to youtube-dl (I know, not an ideal method) and I really can't have porn sites in our code base. lol

Playlist extractors are not supposed to have age_limit.

Well then it's a good thing that two of the four listed extractors are not playlist extractors :)

Also, would you mind linking me to where this decision was made? I don't really understand why any extractor for a porn site wouldn't have a static age_limit. Thanks!
