What if some extractors have their own DEFAULT_OUTTMPL?

Description of your issue, suggested solution and other information

In YoutubeDL.py in def prepare_filename(self, info_dict) in line 660

outtmpl = self.params.get('outtmpl', DEFAULT_OUTTMPL)

outtmpl does not depend on value of "extractor" key in template_dict
So outtmpl is '%(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s' most of the time

And it's perfectly fine

But when extractor is "Imgur", well... it would be nice to have outtmpl equal '%(playlist_title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s'

Something like this:

            def from_extractor(default, info):
                if info["extractor"] == "Imgur":
                    return '%(playlist_title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s'
                return default

If you run $ youtube-dl https://imgur.com/gallery/gH2YifC you will get

[download] Destination: Imgur-PMVKzz1.mp4

When I run my patched youtube-dl I get

[download] Destination: Message in a bottle-PMVKzz1.mp4

Who knows, maybe other extractors have more suitable DEFAULT_OUTTMPL as well, right?

oh and this bug too:
Destination should be ¯_(ツ)/¯-FzIfHVd.mp4 and not ¯(ツ)_¯-FzIfHVd.mp4

not a bug, try to create the file manually.

I got [download] Destination: ¯⧹_(ツ)_⧸¯-FzIfHVd.mp4 with this:
