Channel: use general pbj=1 endpoint to get first page of videos

Browse Source 
YouTube disabled the browse_ajax endpoint. Quick fix for first
channel page. In general, this will be more robust against api
endpoint changes. As YouTube continues to change api endpoints,
at least the subscriptions and first page will no longer break.
