YouTube feeds no longer contain the required 'UC' prefix on channel ID. 

Which produces a broken channel URL, and missing description. New
channels will also be missing a thumbnail.

This checks for 22 character IDs and prepends 'UC' to form a valid ID.
Updating all channels with this patch will fix all of the above issues.
