CBC Radio podcast RSS feeds fail due to User-Agent string #208

if you look at this issue at Audiobookshelf CBC Radio podcast RSS feeds fail due to User-Agent string I will guess that the reason I'm not able to sync/see/use CBC podcasts in Repod (front end to gpodder sync in NextCloud web UI) is due to the same problem.

This would be a feature request to enable changing the User-Agent string (or perhaps a bug fix? doing as audiobookshelf did and setting up a "fall back" user-agent string that isn't rejected)

This article might provide a small illumination to the problem. I will guess there are other podcast sources that present similiar issues.

This list appears to include many user-agent strings that are out there (yes I have shared all of this with CBC as well). It is missing the user agent for audiobookshelf and your app as well.

Thank you for the awesome software.
Hopefully this can help make it even better.
