Streamlink: Twitch Plugin Recording Streams Hosted on a Twitch Users Channel

• [x] This is a bug report.
• [x] This is a feature request.
• [x] This is a plugin (improvement) request.
• [x] I have read the contribution guidelines.

So, the problem is that when a streamer is hosting someone else on twitch, the plugin tends to record the hosted user. I think that this should have an option, such as --no-host to prevent this from happening.

1. Try to record anyone who is hosting someone else
2. The program will record the hosted person (e.g if this is a 24 hour stream they are hosting, it will record them), and this is an error in my eyes.

Operating system and version: Ubuntu 16.0.4
Streamlink and Python version: Newest Versions

See the --twitch-disable-hosting parameter:

Closing this since it's solved.
