Find out if it's OK to delete the other "upcoming" segments in the youtube account. #40

In the youtube brand account, in the live streaming section, there are several "upcoming" events listed which are all duplicates. Each one got created when the stream key or the stream metadata was unexpectedly changed (issue #24 and issue #37).

Experiment to see if it's OK to prune these events without disturbing the current live stream.

The answer seems to be Yes, it's OK to delete. In fact, I can't find any items any more, even though I didn't personally delete them.

Turns out the remaining "upcoming" videos are only visible in the new "Beta" dashboard. You can delete them, but don't delete all of them. Deleting the current one kills your live stream.
