It will use yt-dlp to automatically download the videos.
To download a youtube channel, you need to find the feed associated with that
channel, and pass it to `git annex importfeed`. There does not seem to be
an easy link anywhere to get the feed, but you can construct its url
manually. For a channel url like
"https://www.youtube.com/channel/$foo", the
feed is "https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id=$foo"
You can either use `git-annex importfeed --scrape` with the url to the
channel, or you can find the RSS feed for the channel, and
`git-annex importfeed` that url (without `--scrape`).
Use of yt-dlp is disabled by default as it can be a security risk.
