HTTP 403 on Auth

See original GitHub issue

version: 1.21
node version: v14.14.0
npm (or yarn) version: 6.14.8

Do you want to request a feature or report a bug?: Bug

What is the current behavior?: Currently authenticating to Pixiv’s API is throwing a 403 due to a Cloudflare ratelimit page requesting me to complete a captcha to continue

What is the expected behavior?: Authentication should succeed.

Suggested solution: It appears the Pixiv.py team are working through the same issue here: https://github.com/upbit/pixivpy/issues/140

I personally edited my local dependency for testing and simply adding a ‘User-Agent’ header with the following value seems to have fixed the issue: PixivAndroidApp/5.0.115 (Android 6.0; PixivBot)

Perhaps adding an option to specify a User-Agent header would allow us to easily bypass this issue for the time being.
