Change YouTube Leftbar Subscription Links To Channel/User Video Page

Change YouTube leftbar's subscription links to channel/user video page. This script can optionally also move updated links to top of the list (if there's enough space), optionally uncollapse all updated links which may extend the non collapsible links, and optionally display the number of updated & total links following the "SUBSCRIPTION" section label. All features can be enabled/disabled from the script code. For new YouTube layout only.

Review: Good - script works

Not sure how widespread it is or if it's a gradual rollout, but as of yesterday:

- changeLinksURL set to true, it no longer sorts channels.
- moveUpdatedLinksToTop set to true, collapsing channel list (manually or via autoExpandCollapsed set to true) is broken, subscription title/header missing.
- UncollapseUpdatedLinks seems to be working fine.
- showLinksCount does not work at all.
- autoExpandCollapsed is fine, except as noted in moveUpdatedLinksToTop.

Update:

Just did a quick A/B, and UncollapseUpdatedLinks seems to have no effect. If moveUpdatedLinksToTop is set to true, it always displays exactly channels with new content, no more or less, although I have no yet tested with "zero" new content to see what happens.
