* [Commands Module] Better Typehint Support
We now do a lot more with type hints
- No more rexporting d.py commands submodules
- New type aliases for GuildContext & DMContext
- More things are typehinted
Note: Some things are still not typed, others are still incorrectly
typed, This is progress.

* Add a timedelta converter
This reuses a lot of logic from @mikeshardmind 's scheduler cog with permission
It adds a timedelta converter
It keeps it generalized as requested
It keeps the function available for non converter use as requested
* Handle feedback
* style fix
This creates a central location to store external API tokens that can be used between cogs without requiring each cog to be loaded for it to work.
A new set option for `[p]set api` is created to assist in forming bot readable API token locations.
This also updates the Streams cog to utilize the central database.
Tokens are moved from the old data locations in core cogs on load.
API changes:
- Cogs must now inherit from `commands.Cog` (see #2151 for discussion and more details)
- All functions which are not decorators in the `redbot.core.checks` module are now deprecated in favour of their counterparts in `redbot.core.utils.mod`. This is to make this module more consistent and end the confusing naming convention.
- `redbot.core.checks.check_overrides` function is now gone, overrideable checks can now be created with the `@commands.permissions_check` decorator
- Command, Group, Cog and Context have some new attributes and methods, but they are for internal use so shouldn't concern cog creators (unless they're making a permissions cog!).
- `__permissions_check_before` and `__permissions_check_after` have been replaced: A cog method named `__permissions_hook` will be evaluated as permissions hooks in the same way `__permissions_check_before` previously was. Permissions hooks can also be added/removed/verified through the new `*_permissions_hook()` methods on the bot object, and they will be verified even when permissions is unloaded.
- New utility method `redbot.core.utils.chat_formatting.humanize_list`
- New dependency [`schema`](https://github.com/keleshev/schema)
User-facing changes:
- When a `@bot_has_permissions` check fails, the bot will respond saying what permissions were actually missing.
- All YAML-related `[p]permissions` subcommands now reside under the `[p]permissions acl` sub-group (tbh I still think the whole cog has too many top-level commands)
- The YAML schema for these commands has been changed
- A rule cannot be set as allow and deny at the same time (previously this would just default to allow)
Documentation:
- New documentation for `redbot.core.commands.requires` and `redbot.core.checks` modules
- Renewed documentation for the permissions cog
- `sphinx.ext.doctest` is now enabled
Note: standard discord.py checks will still behave exactly the same way, in fact they are checked before `Requires` is looked at, so they are not overrideable.
