[Feature Request] rTorrent custom field enhancement about flexget HOT 4 CLOSED

Seems like a good feature. I'd say that from_rtorrent could probably just provide all the custom fields (with an rtorrent_ prefix) rather than the user having to specify which ones.

As for setting it, I'd probably put it under a separate dict in the config, something like:

rtorrent:
  custom_fields:
    myspecialfield: whatever
    otherspecialfield: "it should support {{jinja}} too"

A pull request would be great for something like this if you, or someone else, is up for it.

I would love for from_rtorrent to automatically return all custom attributes, however I'm not sure how possible that is. Looking at the documentation, I don't see a way to list the keys for the named custom attributes (unless you have rTorrent-PS installed, which I don't think we want to make a dependency).

As for setting it, I was thinking not using a separate dict in the config just to keep the names the same between from_rtorrent and rtorrent plugins, but I don't think its that big of a deal either way.

Although, I suppose the cleanest way would just be to add the separate custom_fields dict to both from_rtorrent and rtorrent and keep consistency that way!

Ahh, didn't realize some of those methods on the linked documentation required extra stuff. Not familiar with the rtorrent ecosystem.
