Youtube - Fix channel links in sidebar recommendations

Fixes the channel links for the "Up next" and recommendated videos below it on youtube.



For whatever reason, youtube decided that you should no longer be able to click on a channel's name in the recommended videos (the sidebar on video pages) to go to that channel.
This script fixes that (more or less).

To achieve this I had to use AJAX, so when you click a channel name it might take a second before the page starts to load. This is because the script has to fetch the link to the channel from that video's page.
Though in my experience it's almost instant.

The channel will open to the /videos section by default.
