Description
🚀 Feature
Add download functionality if available to all datasets.
Motivation
Currently, the following datasets have no option to download them directly:
CityscapesCoco(Detection|Captions)Flickr(8|30)kHMDB51ImageNetKinetics400LSUNUCF101
Pitch
Of those listed above only
CityscapesFlickr(8|30)kImageNet
require some manual action that cannot be provided by us. For the others we can provide a download flag.

Research direction
Start by locating the dataset implementations for Cityscapes, Coco, Flickr8k/Flickr30k, HMDB51, ImageNet, Kinetics400, LSUN, and UCF101, then compare their existing download options. Done means datasets that can support automated downloading expose a download flag, while Cityscapes, Flickr8k/Flickr30k, and ImageNet retain their required manual steps.
