Description
Add dry run option to preview what tracks be downloaded without actually downloading any track:
-X, --dry-run Do not download tracks, only display what would be downloaded.
If track size info is already available to the script "for free", then a per track and/or total value would be appreciated. (But coding round-trips to get the sizes is unjustified work, IMHO.)

Research direction
Start by locating the Python command-line option parsing and the track download flow. Add support for -X/--dry-run so the tracks that would be downloaded are displayed without downloading them. Consider per-track or total sizes only if that information is already available without additional requests.
