Obtain the Tidal token needed to use this API

As well as a TIDAL username and password, the Tidal API needs an API token which is unique to your apps. You can get this token by network-sniffing some application that uses TIDAL Playback feature, like Tidal for Windows, Tidal for Android, or CapTune from Sennheiser.
