No (extended) entities

See original GitHub issue

When I use api.GetStatus(ID) I don’t get extended_entities or even normal entities. All I get is “media”, but that doesn’t include video information (for example).

E.g. for this tweet:

print(api.GetStatus(778307811012780032))

and I only get this back:

The api needs tweet_mode=extended to return media.
