Keep normalization consistent with load.
_normalize_channel_url preserves /CHANNEL/. load then performs a case-sensitive check for "youtube.com/channel/" and raises ValueError before calling _create_channel. Make route validation follow the intended case rules and add end-to-end coverage for this input.
