Bypass paywalls for scientific documents

Bypass paywalls for scientific documents by downloading them from sci-hub instead of paying something like 50 bucks for each paper. This script adds download buttons on Google Scholar, Scopus and Web Of Science, which lead to sci-hub.tw. In this way you can get free access to scientific papers even if you (or your university) can't afford their prices.

// Following permissions are necessary to keep the sci-hub domain updated: once a day, the script checks if Sci-Hub can be reached at the known domain:
// if it can't be reached, the script retrieves the new domain (if it's been updated) from Sci-Hub's official VK account.

// @connect      vk.com
// @connect      *
// "connect *" is used as Sci-hub's domain can change, and the script needs to check whatever it thinks is the sci-hub's domain to see if it's valid.
