Subject: [PATCH] fix(channel): drop channel-constant sort options on the
 channel page

Subscribers and Channel-priority sorts are meaningless when the feed is scoped to one channel
(both are constant across its videos), so hide them there via a channelScoped flag on Feed.
The main feed keeps all sorts.
