Search videos in a channel by keyword GET

Keyword-search within a channel. Both `channel` and `q` are required on the first page (pass `continuation` for subsequent pages). To list every upload from a channel without a search keyword, use `/api/v2/channel/videos` instead.

Latest 15 uploads (RSS) GET

Free endpoint backed by YouTube's public RSS feed.
