Changes
- Added an option to hide low view (< 1000) videos in Related
- Added a new "Extra small" size option for Search thumbnails on desktop
- Updated the option which restores the normal Related sidebar layout on desktop to also revert the 2 column and wide variants
- Fixed the restored Upload date filter in Search on desktop causing a full page reload
- Fixed adding another Upload date filter when the current user still has the old Sort by filters in Search on desktop
- Renamed the "YouTube experiments" option group to "Recent YouTube changes", as these didn't end up just being A/B tests as expected
