[YouTube-API] Re: http:// in API entry description

Hello Stacey,

Video descriptions that come back in the search feed have any URLs in
them truncated, and newlines are translated into spaces. This matches
the behavior of the search results you see when searching on
youtube.com. Video descriptions that come back when requesting a video
entry directly or video entries from a playlist or non-search feed
shouldn't be truncated.

Cheers,
