  1. Fix RefreshTokenException('Could not find the Guest token in HTML')

    ABOUT THE PROBLEM
    
    This problem has recently begun to occur on some environments.
    This doesn't happen every time, so if you are lucky, you don't get the
    error.
    
    The cause is literally literally that twint could not find the Guest
    token in HTML.
    Actually, sometimes token isn't included in HTML recently.
    
        #!/usr/bin/env python3
        # This program is WTFPL.
        import requests
    
    res = requests.get('https://twitter.com')
    print(res.text.split('\n')[-1])
    twint require the result of running the above code is })();</script><script nonce="VALUE">document.cookie = decodeURIComponent("gt=VALUE; Max-Age=VALUE; Domain=.twitter.com; Path=/; Secure");</script>.
    However, sometimes the result is only })();</script> and missing the
    Guest token.
    
    ABOUT THE SOLUTION
    
    In this patch, twint get the Guest token from
    https://api.twitter.com/1.1/guest/activate.json if could not find the
    one.
    The author referred to the code of gallery-dl:

    Author's note:
    
    > I don't understand session of requests, so the code may be not good.
    > I hope someone rewrite the patch better and create a pull request.
