Security: YouTube | Deleted channel is publicly viewable on YouTube.com, not accessible via Creator Studio

Reported by motoxto...@san.rr.com, Jan 19 2017

Issue description

VULNERABILITY DETAILS
A deleted channel is publicly viewable on YouTube.com, but it is not accessible via Creator Studio web interface.

VERSION
Chrome Version: 55.0.2883.95 (64-bit) (Stable)
Operating System: OS X El Capitan, Version 10.11.6

REPRODUCTION CASE
* Confirm channel is publicly viewable on YouTube.com [here](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCszw6uoxdIYKnwV9Ugva-sw)
* Login to YouTube.com as owner of this channel (i.e. motoxtoots@san.rr.com)
* Go to YouTube.com > Creator Studio > [Video Manager](https://www.youtube.com/my_videos?o=U)

EXPECTED
* The deleted channel should not be publicly viewable on YouTube.com.
* Since the channel obviously is not deleted, Creator Studio should allow access to the channel's settings.

ACTUAL
* The deleted channel is no longer accessible when logged into Creator Studio
* The [Video Manager](https://www.youtube.com/my_videos?o=U) page says, "You must create a channel to upload videos".
* The deleted channel remains publicly viewable on YouTube.com after 4+ years.
